Our Financial Procedure

 

We ask for a percentage deposit (co‑payment) of what we estimate to be the total cost of the services to be performed. The Insurance claim Is then submitted to the Insurer(s) and If and when it is paid, you will be billed‑for your share of any unpaid balances according to the plan that you have; or you may receive a rebate check If there have been any overpayments made by you once all Insurance payments are in, refund checks are sent out once per month from this office. Interest will be charged on all outstanding balances of more than 60 days at the rate of 1.5% per billing cycle.



Please understand that Insurance and claim filing can be a very complicated and long process. This office will do the best it can to assure that claims are filed correctly and that the proper benefits are received. If we do not receive payment from your Insurance company In 60 days, you will then be billed directly for any outstanding balance. You, the patient, have a lot more Influence and legal rights with your Insurance company and employer than we do. You, the patient, by getting Involved, in the payment process on a delayed claim will usually get a lot more accomplished.
