OFFICE BILLING POLICY


It is our goal to provide our patients with the most thorough and up-to-date health care possible. This requires good communication and "partnership" between you, the office staff and your physician.

We will submit a claim for you to insurance companies with which we are contracted for covered services. In order to do so, we must have a current insurance card. If you do not have a current insurance card we appreciate and expect payment at time of service. We'll provide you the information you will need to submit the claim yourself. We do accept cash, check, Visa or Mastercard. We have an obligation, by contract with insurance companies, to collect all copays at time of your visit. We must add an additional fee of $10.00 to cover our billing and administrative cost. In addition, we have a $15.00 fee for all checks returned from the bank with insufficient funds.

There will be a $100.00 charge to you for appointment cancellations with less than a 24 hour notice or if you do not show for your scheduled appointment. We ask new patients to give us their credit card number or a personal check to hold their new patient appointment at the time you schedule. If you write a check it will be returned to you at the time of your appointment.

If you request telephone management for a medical condition there will be a $25.00 charge payable at the time of service by either Visa or Mastercard.

We are happy to fulfill your request for administrative services such as letters to insurance companies for preauthorization of non-formulary drugs, faxes to mail-in pharmacies for prescriptions, etc. In order to comply with this request there will be a $15.00 charge to you payable at time of your request.
