Internal Medicine Associates is dedicated to providing our patients with the best possible care and service.
We ask for your support by understanding and cooperating with our Financial Policy.
It is important for you to understand that health insurance coverage is an agreement between you and your insurance company. Benefits are set by them as it relates to seeking care, notification to your plan and following your plans proscribed requirements.
AND
Your doctor's bill for services provided is an agreement between you and your doctor.
Your Responsibility
Our Physicians participate with many insurance companies. It is your responsibility to call your insurance company to verity that the doctor you are seeing is participating.
If we do not participate with your insurance company and decide to move forward with seeking care in our practice we will expect payment from you. If we can not confirm insurance coverage we will consider you a self-pay and ask for full payment at the time of service.
All co-payments/co-insurance or payments for non-covered services are the patient's responsibility and will be collected by our staff at the time of service.
In the event that your insurance carrier denies payment for authorized services, you may be asked to help resolve these issues with your carrier.
