 Mission Statement
|
|
We
are pleased to welcome you as a new patient. Our primary mission is to
deliver the best and most comprehensive care available. An important
part of this mission is making the cost of medical care as easy and
manageable for our patient as possible.
Please arrive 15 minutes early for this appointment.
If you have had any testing done related to your problem (MRI, X-Rays, CT
scans, EMG) please bring a copy of the report along with the films,
either on disc or actual films to your appointment. You will be
rescheduled if you come to your appointment without these films.
You can pick up your films at the facility you had them done at. Please
call them at least 24 hours in advance to have your films ready. Also
please bring your insurance card and photo ID. If you are on Ohio
Medicaid, we need your current month’s card.
There is a fee for consultation. If you are not covered by insurance, this
fee is due in full the day of your appointment. If you have a type of
insurance that requires a referral from your family doctor, it is
your responsibility to call your doctor to make sure your family doctor has
received it from your insurance company and forwarded the referral to our
office prior to your appointment. We will bill your insurance
for your convenience. If a co-payment / deductible is due for
your visit, the co-payment / deductible is due the day of your appointment.
Medicare, Medicaid, and Worker’s Compensation are the only exceptions.
Patients who are involved in a motor vehicle accident must self-pay their
consultation fee the day of your appointment, as we are unable to wait for
accident settlements.
If for any reason you are unable to keep your appointment, please give our
office at least 24 hours notice so that we may fill your appointment time
with another patient. If you do not call to cancel, you may be subject
to a charge.

As a courtesy to our patients, we will bill most insurance plans for services

Patient Payment Policy
In order to better serve you, we have implemented a new patient payment
policy.
• All co-payments / deductibles must be paid at front desk on your
scheduled visit. Elective procedures will not be scheduled prior to payment
or payment arrangements.
• We will make every attempt possible to collect payment from your
insurance for services rendered. Any balance over 90 days old will be
transferred to patient responsibility in an effort to settle the balance. You
can assist by contacting your insurance company.
• You will receive a total of three statements in effort to collect
patient balances. After non-payment or lack of payment arrangements the
balance will be sent to collections.
• Payment requirements for accounts in collections will consist of 50%
of outstanding balance to be paid before scheduled visit.
• There will be a $30 charge for all returned checks.
