As the first of the year approaches, we would like to take the time to remind you that now is the time to review your insurance benefits and check to make sure that we are still in-network with your insurance.
It has come to our attention that some insurance companies, both large and small, are starting to come out with some smaller network groups that we are not a part of. It is no longer a matter of being in-network with PPO plans or HMO plans. As we are noticing more “sub-network groups” being put into effect, you must know exactly which network you may utilize with your insurance plan.
We ask that you please not call the office and ask if we participate in a particular network as we will be unable to give you accurate information. There are many networks out there that we are not yet familiar with. We would also ask that if you are using an insurance broker that you make sure you review the benefits of the plans being offered to you closely.
Please make sure that you understand what is covered by the plan you choose, as any services not fully covered or not covered at all become the financial responsibility of the parent and/or patient.
