FINANCIAL POLICY We realize that every person’s financial situation is different. For this reason, we have worked hard to provide a variety of payment options to help you receive the care you need with respect to your budget. Health Insurance At this time, Advanced Ocular Prosthetics Inc. accepts all Blue Cross/Blue Shield insurance plans as well as all UPMC Health Plans. You, the patient, are responsible for all deductible and co-insurance under your plan. If you have a different insurance plan you are responsible for the full amount of all services provided by Advanced Ocular Prosthetics Inc. We are happy to file the forms necessary to see that you receive the full benefits of your insurance coverage, however we cannot guarantee payment. Because the insurance policy is an agreement between you and the insurance company, we must emphasize that as a specialty provider our relationship is with you. Please know that we will do everything possible to see that you receive the full benefits of your policy but ultimately you, the patient are responsible for all charges. If your insurance company pays AOP, we will promptly refund any overpayment to the patient. Payment For your convenience, AOP accepts cash, check, Visa, MasterCard, Discover and Care Credit, which offers interest free payment plans. All payments, including deductible and co-insurance, are due the day of your appointment.

AUTHORIZATION AND RELEASE I authorize AOP to release any information and/or records of my care to third party payers. I hereby assign AOP all insurance benefits, including major medical benefits, due in consideration of the ocular prosthetic and it’s care that I have received or will be receiving. I hereby authorize my insurance company(s) to pay benefits directly to AOP. I agree to be responsible for all charges not covered by my insurance. I also understand that failure to receive proper physician authorization may result in denial of benefits.

MEDICAL RECORDS RELEASE I hereby authorize the use and/or disclosure of my protected health information as described above.

CONSENT FOR TREATMENT I, the undersigned, hereby authorize the ocularist at Advanced Ocular Prosthetics Inc. to furnish such examination, fitting and outpatient care which in the physician’s judgment is recommended or necessary for the treatment of any illness or condition.
