Most of the services we provide are covered and paid by the majority of insurance plans. Our business office is happy to file the claims for you to save you time and effort.
However, all our services are rendered to the patient and not to the insurance company. This means all charges, regardless of insurance coverage, are the patient’s responsibility. It’s also the patient’s responsibility to verify specific coverage details with their insurance carrier.

Additionally, if a significant new medical problem should present itself during a well check, an additional service may be billed.
We realize that often medical expenses are not anticipated, and we’re willing to work with you in advance to make financial arrangements. In order to do so, we must know that there is a need for an exception to our policy. If you have any questions or concerns, please ask.
