GROUP OR INDIVIDUAL
INSURANCE
We have a great insurance department! Our personnel have years
of experience and have worked in various healthcare settings.
We go the extra step in insurance by filing both your primary
and any secondary insurance. We want to take the hassle out of
your insurance filing. We will call your insurance company and
verify your benefits. Please remember, however, that the
payment quotes by your insurance company are not a guarantee of
payment. We will file your insurance and wait up to 90 days for
payment. Assuming your insurance company pays as they have
quoted you will only be responsible for any deductible, co-pay
or non-covered service. If you have any questions about your
insurance at any time feel free to call our insurance
department for help. We want to help. You may also discuss your
coverage with our insurance department before you decide on
care.
PATIENTS WITHOUT
INSURANCE
An increasing number of patients
do not have insurance or have high deductibles. As a result we
have several plans for patients without adequate coverage. We
accept credit cards, can arrange payment plans and have special
financing for many
patients.
"ON THE JOB"
INJURY
(Worker’s
compensation)
If you were injured on the job you may
be covered under workers compensation insurance. You will
need to inform your employer. We are happy to work with
your worker’s compensation carrier for
payment.
PERSONAL INJURY OR AUTOMOBILE
ACCIDENTS
We wait for
payment in most car accidents cases or other personal
injuries. Please notify your insurance carrier of your
visit to our office. If you have an attorney representing
you please notify the office. Although you are ultimately
responsible for your bill, we will wait for settlement of
your claim for up to six months after the termination of
your care for payment. Once the case has been settled or
if you terminate care, any fees for services are due
immediately.
MEDICARE
We accept assignment for
Medicare. This means the check for your care is usually sent
directly to our office for that portion of care that Medicare
covers. For the chiropractor, Medicare covers only the
chiropractic adjustment to the spine. Medicare pays 80% of the
allowable fee once your deductible has been met. You are
required to pay any remaining deductible and the 20% as well as
any non-covered services. Our office will fill out your forms
at no charge.
