The medical assistant or answering service will contact the doctor, usually within a few minutes. If the doctor is away, she will have made arrangements for a qualified physician to substitute for her. In the event that you need to be hospitalized, this office will make appropriate arrangements for you. All fees are carefully established and meet the norms of Medicare and other medical offices in the area. Sound business and collection procedures are essential to continue operation and maintain high quality services for you.
Payment is due at time services are rendered.
Patients with problems in paying doctor's fees should discuss them as early as possible, and arrange an acceptable payment schedule. Accounts which are more than 60 days past due are considered to be delinquent unless other arrangements are made with this office. Unless otherwise arranged with this office, we must expect payment directly from the patient. Only you and your insurer can resolve differences arising over a claim. It is the patient's responsibility to file claims and to seek reimbursement from the insurer.
