| By simplifying the
preparation of insurance claims, we are able to hold down
costs that are unrelated to the delivery of good medical
care. Potential problems with billing may be avoided by
thoroughly completing your patient history sheet. Please
inform our receptionist of any changes since your last
visit, and bring your insurance cards and/or claim forms
with you at the time of your appointment.
Please remember that insurance is
considered a method of reimbursing the patient for fees paid
to the doctor, and is not a substitute for payment. Some
companies pay fixed allowances for certain procedures, and
others pay a percentage of the charge. It is your
responsibility to pay any deductible amount, coinsurance, or
any other balance not paid by your insurance company.
To help you receive maximum
benefits, we encourage you to contact our billing department
with any questions regarding billing and insurance. They can
be reached at (518) 793-9820.
