Philosophy

Welcome to my office! I provide psychiatric assessment and treatment of adults and adolescents age 12 and older. I consider the four main components in life to be the medical, psychological, social, and environmental factors. If we represented life as a chair with four legs, those four factors would each be one “leg,” providing support, balance, and helping to stabilizing the chair, or life, as a whole. Weakness in one or
more legs leads to instability and causes the chair, or one’s life, to not function well.

I am committed to providing the highest quality of care for my patients, so they can control and stabilize their life. My recommendations are based on the latest medical science research, as well as over 20 years of experience working in the field. You can read more about my philosophy and practice, as well as office policies, at: harrisjensenmd.com

My approach is to work through issues while building the skills a patient needs to be happy. Primarily, my practice focuses on interpersonal skills, meditation, rational thinking skills, and/or using medication.

Together you and I will focus on building up your self-resilience by improving your insight into yourself and how best to meet your specific and unique needs.

Please summarize why you are seeking Dr. Jensen's assisstance

The Doctor-Patient Financial Agreement

I understand that services need to be paid for at the time they are provided. I understand that I need to keep my account current in order to get further services like scheduling visits with the Dr. etc. I understand that there are no payment plans. If I am short on funds for my account, I agree to use a credit card.
It is REQUIRED that the patient call their insurance provider before their first appointment and verify we are a participating provider, the patient’s specific plan benefits, co-pays, deductibles, and to understand how much the patient will ultimately be liable for. ASK FOR A “VERIFICATION OF BENEFITS STATEMENT” sent via mail or email. It outlines exactly what the insurance company agrees to pay for so there are no surprises when you are billed. If you have 2 different insurances, you need to call both insurance companies. Please make sure your Coordination of Benefits (COB) is up-to-date.

**Our office DOES NOT verify your insurance; you must do this yourself**
- Insurance Payment and Claim Rejection Process: After your appointment, our office will send a claim to your insurance company. Sending a claim doesn’t guarantee your insurance will pay. Claims are often rejected due to minor inaccuracies in address, ID numbers, misspelled names, or missing/switched numbers or letters. Please note, it is the insurance company’s choice to pay or not pay and our office has no control over them.
  - If a claim is denied, our office will try to investigate and fix the problem. However, due to the large quantity of paperwork we have, there is no guarantee the office staff will have time to investigate any specific denial. It is ultimately the patient’s responsibility to advocate for themselves and work with their insurance provider by calling the customer service number on their insurance card. Once the issue is resolved our office will re-file the claim.
- Explanation of Benefits: According to Colorado state law, insurance companies must provide an “explanation of benefits” (EOB) to both the provider and patient within 30 days of receiving a claim, whether it is rejected or not. The EOB is usually a physical letter sent to the patient’s billing address. Although now they are often available through an online portal if your insurer has one. If you don’t receive an EOB within 30-40 days of your appointment, you should call the customer service number on the back of your insurance card and request one.
Past Due Accounts
- Interest: We reserve the right to bill 1.5% finance, as provided by state law, on account balances that are 90 days or more past due.
- Collections: Accounts that are 90 days or more past due, where the patient hasn’t contacted us, or if we haven’t been able to contact the patient after numerous attempts, will be referred to a collection agency. Accounts turned over to collections will result in automatic dismissal as our patient.
- Returned Check Fee: Any returned (insufficient funds/NSF) checks will be charged $20.00 plus a $15.00 office fee or whatever the Bank Fee is plus $15.00. The minimum charge billed to your account is $35.00.
- For past due accounts, the additional applicable court and attorney fees will also be your responsibility.
