Appointments

Do you need a referral from your Primary Care Physician?

If you participate in an insurance plan that requires you to have a referral for your visit, you must coordinate getting that referral through your primary care physician prior to your appointment. Patients without valid referrals will be rescheduled or will be responsible for payment at the time of service. Unfortunately, if you do not inform us of your contract’s special requirements (such as referrals, pre-certification, or participating facilities) and we subsequently order services (such as lab work, x-rays, CT scans, ultrasounds, sleep studies, hospitalization, etc.) that are not covered, the selected medical facility we will have no choice but to bill you directly for those charges. Payment for those charges will then be your responsibility.

Payment Information

By contract, all co-pays, must be paid at the time of your visit. If your yearly deductible has not been met, a portion of this may be required at the time of your visit.

Self-pay Patients

If you do not have insurance, or an insurance plan we participate in, payment is required at the time of your visit. For your convenience we accept:

• Cash
• Check
• Visa
• MasterCard
• Discover
• American Express

Know your plan's limitations

Providing quality medical care for our patients is our primary concern; and we are more than willing to provide that care within your insurance plan's guidelines. It is your responsibility to know what those guidelines are and inform us when you come in for each visit.
