REFERRALS & AUTHORIZATIONS It is your responsibility to obtain all required referrals and authorization approvals from your insurance company. Failure to do so will result in reduced benefits and higher patient responsibility. INSURANCE Please provide current copies of your insurance card(s) and immediately notify us of changes.

After 60 days, you will be responsible for any remaining balance. You are responsible for payment regardless of your insurance coverage or legal representation in situations such as accidents or workers compensation.

We will file your claim directly to your insurance company. Please remember that most insurance companies do not pay the full amount, and therefore, you are responsible for the balance.
