  • We DO NOT accept insurance, and will NOT bill your insurance company.
  • All payments are required in full at the time of service.
  • If you would like to submit an out-of-network claim to your insurance company for reimbursement, of for application towards your deductible, we will provide you with the appropriate and customary codes that reflect the services performed.

  • We recommend that you inquire with your insurance provider or Human Resource Department to determine whether your plan has out-of-network benefits or if you are subject to an out-of-network deductible or out of network maximum.
    • An out-of-pocket maximum is the total amount of money you can be required to pay towards your health care before your health insurance policy begins to pay 100% of the costs. This amount differs from plan to plan but usually resets each year. There is usually one maximum per person and a higher maximum per family.
    • A deductible is a set amount of money you are expected to pay before your insurance will start paying for your care. This amount is determined by your specific policy and is set in advance.
    • We make NO guarantee of any insurance reimbursement.
