What Do I Bring?

Prepare for Your Visit

We ask that you present your current insurance card at each office visit and be prepared to pay your co-pay at each visit. If you have wellness forms please bring these at the time of your visit.

Medical Records, immunization records, insurance card, photo id, co-payment, family health history, list of prescription drugs and over the counter drugs, vitamins and supplements that you currently take, how often and why.

Payment Options/Financial Policy

How may I pay?  Payments can be made by cash, money order, check, debit or credit card.  A returned check fee in the amount of $25 may be assessed to your account for every check returned for insufficient funds, stopped payment or closed account.

 

If you have an outstanding balance for an extended period you may be asked to agree to a payment plan.

 

Patient Insurance plan requirements.   We will do our best to assist you with your insurance company’s requirements, however it is the patient’s responsibility to ensure that all required permissions are obtained, including referral, pre-certification, and pre-authorization and using in-network facilities.  You will be responsible for the entire bill if the payment is denied by your insurance company for failure to meet requirements.  We make every effort to find a payment solution, but please understand that payment of your bill is part of your care.
