An account is
established for each family with a running balance. We request that
you pay for your health care at the time of the service. Eliminating
statements helps keep our fees lower.
Private
Insurance. We will file insurance
claims for all services unless you request otherwise. Insurance
rarely pays the full amount, so we ask that you pay the co-pay and
deductible at the time of service. If payment from the insurance
company results in an over payment, a refund check will be issued to
you.
Self-Pay. Full payment is expected
at the time of your visit. A Sliding Fee Scale is available
to patients meeting income and family size guidelines. Sliding fee
is a discount that is applied to your bill. Please ask the
receptionist for further details and a form to
complete.
Medicare. The clinic will bill
Medicare for services rendered to you. After the payment has been
received, we will then submit the remainder of your bill to your
secondary insurance. If you don not have secondary insurance, you
will be billed for the balance due (if any). See
Self-Pay.
Medicaid.
Patients on Medicaid or the Children's Health Insurance Program will
be required to present their identification card at every visit. The
clinic will then bill Medicaid.

sure to inform us whenever you change health insurance
