Office Policies:

If you have a question, we encourage you to call our office during office hours. Our experienced nurses are trained to help you. If you need to speak with your doctor, your call will be returned between patients, during lunch and after 5:00pm.

When the office is closed, one of our doctors is always available by phone. Please call the office and listen to the entire message. It will instruct you how to reach the doctor on call.

We appreciate that our patients recognize that when the office is closed, it is our time to spend with family and friends. Thank you for calling after hours only for matters that cannot wait until the next business day.

In order to see all of our patients on time (or even early), we encourage our patients to arrive 15 minutes prior to the scheduled appointment time. Patients who arrive more than 15 minutes late will be rescheduled. In order to receive your preferred date and time for your well-child visits, we ask that you schedule your appointments 4 to 8 weeks in advance. Please give us a minimum of two weeks to complete and return school and camp forms.

All appointments must be scheduled including sick visits. Sick visits can be booked and seen on the same day. Walk-in patients will be rescheduled. We have two entrances to our office. Please be sure to enter through the “not so well” entrance door when your child is sick. If your child is experiencing a life-threatening emergency call 911 or go immediately to your nearest emergency room.

Failure to appear for a scheduled well child appointment will result in a $50 charge. Canceling less than 24 hours prior to a scheduled visit will result in a $25 charge.

Billing Information:

We accept the following PPO plans: Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Cigna and their subsidiaries. We do not provide billing services to any out of network insurance carrier. We will provide you with the necessary billing forms and a receipt in order for you to file your claims directly to your insurance carrier. You will be expected to pay for your visit in full at the time of service. Our office does not accept any HMO plans. We do not verify insurance coverage. You will need to call your carrier and verify our participation in your network to determine your coverage. We do not bill any secondary policies. We also suggest that you familiarize yourselves with your insurance policy regarding well check-ups. We will be pleased to bill insurance for you, if your insurance information is current in our system. Please be sure to notify us of any changes in insurance, address or phone numbers. Remember newborns must be added to your insurance plan within the first 30 days after birth.

It is your responsibility to keep your insurance and personal information current in our files. Co-pays must be paid at the time of service. This is a contractual agreement that we have with your insurance company. After your visit charges have been reconciled with your insurance, you will receive a billing statement from our office. The amount on this statement will reflect your balance, and that balance is due and payable within 30 days. Any balance remaining on your account for services not covered by your insurance company is your responsibility. We send bills on the first of each month, and bills are due upon receipt. A $25 service charge will be automatically added to your bill for every 30 days your payment is late.
