Billing

We want this process to be easy for you.

To keep our fees to a minimum, we ask that you pay your estimated liability at the time that you receive services. Statements are mailed out showing any remaining balance and may incur interest if they are not paid within 30 days. You are required to pay your balance in full unless special arrangements are made with our office. If you have a delinquent account, you must have approval from of our office before the next appointment can be made. Effective April 11th 2022, there will be a service charge of 3.99% of all credit/debit card processed. 

Labs and procedures are necessary at times for your child. It is possible that these services can be obtained at another outside facility, and you can expect to be billed from that facility as well. We ask that you get in touch with that facility if you have any questions regarding billing for that specific appointment.

The adult that brings the child in for their appointment is the person responsible for the payment at the time of service. A divorce decree is a legal agreement binding only two parties who made the agreement. Therefore, we are not involved in that contract. Both parties will still remain responsible for the child’s bills. The responsibility will be determined by which parent brings the child in at the time of service.

A $25.00 fee is issued for any returned checks. Missed or broken appointments that are not canceled 24-hours or more before the appointment time will also require a $25.00 fee.

If you have insurance, we can file your claims to the carrier as a courtesy. In the event that the insurance company decides not to cover your claim, you are responsible for the balance.

Our practice believes that this communication between the office and patient is extremely important. If you have any questions regarding your insurance explanation or its benefits, please contact your insurance company first. If you have any questions regarding your balance or you want to make a financial agreement, please talk to our office manager. We want to make sure any questions are clarified for your understanding.
