You are responsible for letting us know about your insurance coverage and for providing necessary information so we can bill your insurance.
If there is a change in your insurance coverage, you must let us know before coming in to make sure that the visits are billed correctly. If your insurance coverage changes and you don’t notify us in advance, then you will be responsible for the full amount of your bill.
If your insurance requires pre-authorization or prior approval before services are provided, you are responsible for letting us know this and ensuring that appropriate pre-approvals are obtained.
We are asking everyone who has coverage or pharmacy benefits requiring reauthorization to pay attention to expiration dates and remind us of these dates. This will help us make sure that the necessary approvals have been obtained ahead of time.
