    Payment

    In order for our office to submit an insurance claim, you are required to present your insurance information and valid photo identification at the time of check-in. You are responsible for any co-payment or deductible at each visit, in accordance with your insurance policy.

    If you do not have insurance, payment is due in full at the time services are rendered. Please check with our office about payment plan options. We accept cash, debit card, and most major credit cards.

    Referral Authorization

    Some insurance plans require the patient to obtain a referral authorization from their primary care provider prior to receiving services from a specialist. If your plan requires a referral authorization, services will only be provided if the referral authorization is at our office at the time of your appointment. If referral authorization is an issue, we can reschedule your appointment.
