Insurance
In
order to provide flexibility for our families, we accept all commercial
insurances and participate in many managed-care plans (which may
require partial co- payments at the time of a visit).
We prefer to bill for services directly to insurance companies
and settle balances with families after insurance considerations
are made. Our staff can help you with insurance questions or problems.
In rare situations, usually in the case of newer vaccines, a managed-care
plan may not pay or only partially pay for a submission. In this
situation we will bill you directly for the difference between the
insurance allowment and our wholesale cost to purchase the medication.
Since insurance programs are in constant flux, insurance plan rosters
of member physicians and hospitals are often inaccurate. Please
check with us if you are considering changing insurance programs
to find out of we participate in that plan. Chances are, we do.
Most patients choose one doctor from our group to be their "primary
care doctor," however, patients may see any physician from
our group, regardless of their insurance plan. Your insurance plan,
however, may require that you receive pre-approval from our office
before seeing a specialist or obtaining emergency or other medical
services outside of our offices. When in doubt, give us a call.
