If your insurance company is not listed above, please call our office at (919)
303-4777 to confirm that we participate. The handbook that was provided by your insurance company will include detailed information about what is covered (or not covered) by your policy. Our staff will assist you in determining if your services will be covered by your insurance.
Most policies require patients to pay a portion of their health care costs as an “out-of-pocket” expense. We are obligated, by contract, to collect co-payments, co-insurance and deductibles. In most cases, we will request that you pay your out-of-pocket expenses on the day that services are performed.
Many patients also carry secondary insurance coverage. Secondary insurance will usually pay out-of-pocket expense for services covered by primary insurance. We will file to both primary and secondary insurances on your behalf.
If you have a financial hardship at the time of service, please let us know. We will need, in writing, a letter stating the facts of your hardship, then we can waive the possibility to collect co-payments, co-insurances and deductibles.
