Insurance
We are pleased to participate in most managed care plans, such as HMOs, PPOs, etc., that are available in this area. Please identify your type of insurance when calling for an appointment. Please note that we do not participate with any Medicaid plans.
You are responsible for contacting your insurance company prior to any visits to ensure insurance coverage, verify benefits, co-payments, and deductible amounts for the services received in our office. If pre-authorization is required for services you receive, you must let us know well in advance, so we can assist you in obtaining approval.
Insurance companies may reimburse for fees covering the majority of the services you receive from us, depending on your criteria. However, there may be some services which are either not covered or limited in coverage. You should be thoroughly familiar with the coverage provided by your particular insurance plan.
As a courtesy, our office staff will file your in-network insurance at no charge for obstetrical and surgical care and for regular office visits and check-ups. In order to provide this service, we need your insurance information plus a signed authorization. It is important to note that you are ultimately responsible for payment of your account. Insurance is considered a method of reimbursing you for fees paid to the physician. It is not a substitute for payment.
