Accepted Plans

We accept the following insurance plans. If your insurance is not listed, please contact our business office at 358-3027 to determine if we participate with that plan.

Co-payments

Your co-payment is determined by your individual insurance plan. You will be expected to pay your co-payment at the time of service. If you receive a bill after paying your co-pay, your insurance has processed the claim and deemed that you owe an additional amount for the services you received in our office.

Billing Policies

Claims are usually processed by your insurance company within two to four weeks after your visit. If a balance remains due after our claim has been processed, we will bill you for that amount. Bills for a balance $25 or more are mailed on a monthly basis. Bills for balances under $25 are mailed on a quarterly basis.

Red Flag Policy

We are now required by law to request photo identification if you have not been seen in the last six months. This new policy is to protect you from identity theft. If your current address does not match the address on your identification, please bring a utility bill to verify your current address.

Notification of New Insurance

You should bring your child’s insurance card to each visit so that we can verify coverage. If your coverage has changed, we will ask to copy the insurance card for our files.
