Your insurance company often requires a referral and/or a prior authorization from your Primary Care Physician. If your insurance company requires a referral or authorization you WILL NEED this PRIOR to your office visit with us. This is a policy which your insurance company has and we are required by your insurance company to obtain this number prior to seeing us. Anyone without a proper authorization will not be seen. |

|
| |
Many insurance policies have co-pays and/or deductibles which must be paid at the time of service. Once again, this is required by your insurance company. |

Please know your insurance coverage in detail. Even the same insurance company offers several different policies with different coverage. For example, some Blue Cross plans require a referral for each specialist, office visit, and procedure; while other Blue Cross plans do not require a referral. These policies may change every year. So, please call your insurance company, workplace, or review your insurance handbook to have an understanding of your co-payments, deductibles, referral requirements, and where to go for special tests, such as xrays and bloodwork, to obtain the best coverage. |

Please understand that our office calls your insurance company to get a prior authorization for a procedure based on your symptoms. However, this is not a guarantee of payment by your insurance company. |

|
| |
If your insurance company does not pay for your specialist visit or testing, YOU are responsible for that payment in a timely manner after reasonable efforts have been made to receive payment for your insurance company. |
