Patients are responsible for providing accurate insurance information via a current insurance card, all necessary referrals or paper work from their referring physician and any co-payment, co-insurance or deductible at the time of each service.

As of 2014, we do not participate in any of the Exchanges or plans offered by The Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare). We advise patients to verify coverage with our office and their insurance carrier prior to all visits.
Our office deals very efficiently with all insurance plans via a sophisticated, state-of-the-art computer system, electronic transmission of accurately coded services and diagnoses, and immediate availability of computer-generated insurance forms for patient use. We welcome all patients regardless of their insurance coverage to see our doctors on a fee-for-service basis, some patients (except in limited HMO plans) have out-of-plan options and can obtain partial reimbursement for medical or surgical visits. Patients are given a completed insurance form to submit to their carrier to obtain their own reimbursement directly. As a courtesy, our office can submit patient claims electronically on their behalf, with insurance payments going directly to the patient. Cosmetic procedures are not reimbursed by insurance.
For our patients’ convenience, we provide the following forms that can be downloaded and completed in advance of a scheduled office visit. This will make registration for your first visit much more efficient.
