Insurance Participation
INSURANCE POLICY
Patients must have private insurance or agree to or adhere to the self-pay policy in order to be scheduled.
Patients involved in other third party injuries without legal representation ( i.e. fall on private or corporate property, boating accident, dog bite, disputed workers compensation, etc.) will be handled as follows: Even if the patient has a private insurance policy, patients must agree and adhere to the self pay policy as we will not bill private insurance. Private insurance will not cover these types of liability claims. This does not go against our contracts that we have with participating insurances.
BEFORE APPOINTMENT
We will not see patients who are involved in medicolegal issues.
Verification of med/pip coverage through auto-insurance is required prior to an appointment being scheduled.
BILLING
Your medical insurance will be billed as secondary only after payment by liability insurance is complete – or if we receive a written denial from your liability carrier.
You will receive a monthly statement from our office. If you anticipate any delay in payment, be sure to contact us so we are aware of your unique concerns.
Self Pay
It is the policy of Apex Orthopedics &
Sports Medicine to require an initial
deposit of $200 at the first visit.
A $100 deposits is required at each subsequent visit. This will only apply to patients who do not have medical coverage through a contracted insurance carrier. Regardless of your balance due, we will require subsequent payments of at least $50.00 per visit, in order to keep your scheduled appointment(s). Any over-payment will be issued as a refund at the completion of your treatment.
