Out of Network Policy

Many patients tell us they must switch their insurance plan. They think they will not be able to see us again. Here is our response:

  • 1. We can still see you out of network. We see hundreds of patients outside of their networks.

  • 2. We are especially sensitive to the fact you are paying out-of-pocket and try to reduce fees wherever we can. We also give lots of free samples. These two things make your out-of-pocket costs just about the same as if you were in network.

  • 3. This has worked for many patients. The cost to them is about the same.

  • 4. If you have something costly such as an MRI or an admission to the hospital, we can refer you back into network very easily.

 

Medicare Policy: 

We ACCEPT NEW Medicare patients. 

 

Non-Insurance payers or No-Insurance Card. 

If you do not have your insurance card and valid ID.  You will be allowed to pay cash and get a receipt for a reimbursement from your insurance company before the medical service has been provided.
