Privacy
Protecting your privacy is important to us. We are required by law to give you this notice about our privacy practices, our responsibilities & your rights concerning your protected health information. You can read this privacy notice here: NOTICE OF PRIVACY PRACTICES
Good Faith Estimate
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, individuals who are not insured by federal programs (such as Medicare, Medicaid, Tricare or other programs) & are uninsured or choose to pay cash may request a good faith estimate (GFE) of anticipated cost of care for items & services. This appears to apply to hospitals, group practices, other facilities (not therapists in private practice). However, in attempt to help patients anticipate expenses, if you are uninsured, paying cash or do not have a supplemental insurance plan, you may contact the office to request an estimate. Note that a GFE is just that (an estimate) & subject to change.
Insurance Updates
We are currently in-network with Medicare, BCBS and United Healthcare. We accept all other insurance and are re-credentialing with most major carriers as of March, 2022. Credentialing can be a lengthy process, taking between 30-120 days. If you have an insurance plan you would like us to accept, please use the “Contact Us” form to submit the name of your plan & the insurance carrier.
