The folder will provide pre and post op instructions, cell numbers of our staff, consents for your reivew and documentation of the benefits that we discussed with you.
Each insurance carrier sets their own cost or "allowable fee" for this visit. An ultrasound examination is performed in conjunction with the physician evaluation. The amount due will depend on how your insurance carrier covers this visit and the specifics of your policy. Some policies charge just a co-pay, some charge the co-insurnace (usually 20-30% of allowable fees), or the visit could go toward your deductible. If your carrier assigns your financial responsibility as a co-pay or co-insurance, the patient responsibility is usually $50-400. However, if your visit goes toward your deductible the amount due will depend upon the specifics of your policy.
