Thank you for choosing us as your podiatrist. We are committed to providing you with the highest quality of care. The following is a statement of our financial policy which we request that you review carefully and sign prior to treatment.
Insurance
If you would like us to bill your insurance, we require a photo ID as well as your insurance card at the time of your initial visit. You must bring all insurance cards at the time of your visit. Without them you will be required to pay cash.
You as the patient are responsible to know what insurance plan you have. You must know what podiatric medical benefits and coverage you have at the time of your appointment, including pre authorization, deductible and co-payments. If you do not know what your coverage is, please call your insurance company prior to your appointment to get the information
For all patients with insurance plans for which we are providers, we will bill your insurance company. All copayments and deductibles are due at the time of service. If we find after the appointment that your insurance was not valid, you will be responsible for all fees incurred.
If we are not a provider for your insurance company, we ask that you please pay at the time of service. We will provide you with a receipt to submit to your insurance for reimbursement.
Cash
Payment for all services is due at the time of service unless prior arrangements are made. We accept cash, checks, Master Card and Visa. A valid ID is required.
