Billing and Insurance
We realize that bills for healthcare services can be confusing, so we are here to help you better understand what to expect during the billing process.
How you pay for your healthcare will depend on whether you have health insurance and the type of coverage you have.
Referrals
Some services require authorizations and referrals in advance. Be sure that you confirm what is required by your insurance company prior to receiving any services. You could be responsible for all charges if proper authorization or referrals are not obtained.
Registration
To ensure that registration and insurance billing is as efficient as possible for you, please provide us with complete information about your primary and.or secondary health insurance and bring your insurance card(s) with you to any visit. Inform us if you personal information has changed since your last visit.
Co-payments
Insurance co-payments should be paid at the time of service.
