Charges

We expect you to pay for our services at the front desk unless we participate with your insurance plan or other arrangements have been previously made. The responsibility for payment of the account always remains with you. We will send you a monthly statement of your account with all unpaid charges for the current month listed and itemized. You may incur a finance charge if your balance is carried over for more than 30 days after your insurance has made payment.

Charges for the professional care you receive from our physicians while you are in the hospital are billed separately from the charges for the use of the hospital facilities. Your monthly statement from us will include the charges for the doctors' in-hospital care. These should be paid in the same manner as charges incurred in our office.

Feel free to discuss fees and treatments at any time. We want all of our patients to understand our charges and medical care. We want you to be satisfied that they are reasonable, equitable and appropriate. Complete frankness on the part of both patient and doctor is the best guarantee of mutual understanding.

Check your statement carefully when you receive it. We try to be as accurate as possible in regard to your financial records, but we do make mistakes. The more promptly you notify you doctor of an error on your account, the sooner we can correct it.

Medical Insurance

Please assist us in verifying your insurance claim information and the claim will promptly be filed with your insurance carrier.

There are many types of insurance programs with varying amounts of benefits. Please remember that we have no control over what amount your insurance company will pay you. You will receive a "walk-out statement" that you may use in filing your insurance. We do file insurance claims with certain private insurance companies, Medicare, and Pennsylvania Medical Assistance. If we do not participate with your insurance company, you will be responsible for sending the information to your insurance company. The payment of your account balance remains your responsibility, and we will continue to bill you and expect payment from you even if your claim is disputed by your insurance company. We are not able to negotiate a disputed claim with your insurance agent or your employer's insurance representative.
