Other Information


Fees and Insurance

We share your concern about the cost of medical care. Our fees are standard for our specialty in this area. Information about specific charges are available upon request.

We are preferred providers for the following:

  • Insurance Companies:
    • Aetna, Blue Cross, and Cigna
  • Provider Networks:
    • First Choice Health Network

We will bill your insurance as a courtesy. We expect payment at the time of the visit for copayments, deductibles, and non-covered services.

Patients from out of state are expected to pay in full at the time of visit regardless of copayment and deductibles.

A monthly finance charge of 1.5% will be assessed on any account that is over 60 days old.

Patients covered under Medicaid must notify us of their coverage before they are seen in the office or hospital. Please bring your Medicaid coupon every time your child is seen.

Prescriptions

Please do not ask us to prescribe medication by phone for illnesses we have not had an opportunity to evaluate in person. Rare exceptions may be made, but the potential medical risk far outweighs any advantage gained in convenience. Medication refills are handled only during regular office hours. Call the office for refills before you have used all your medications, preferably at least 24 hours in advance. In certain circumstances a repeat office visit may be required before the medication is refilled. Please try to anticipate your medication needs before weekends and holidays.


Medical Records

All medical records are kept strictly confidential. Detailed information regarding our privacy policy can be obtained in our Notice of Privacy Practices.
