While we are happy to submit the bill to your insurance carrier, you may be responsible for payment of this type of service, in full, if it is not covered under your policy.

Our front office staff will verify and confirm eligibility at each visit if necessary. If our front staff is unable to verify patient's insurance coverage/eligibility not due to our staff's fault (i.e. insurance company system down), your appointment will be rescheduled.
