Insurance

While I do not contract with insurance companies, I do assist my patients by providing the paperwork necessary to submit into their insurance carriers for reimbursement.   I am considered an “out-of-network” physician for PPO insurance plans.  Practicing this way allows me to provide the kind of care I feel is most helpful, without having to spend substantial amounts of time on paperwork.  Additionally, it ensures complete patient confidentiality for patients who elect not to notify their insurance carriers or employers of provided care.

 

Cancellation policy

I understand that there may be times when you will need to change an appointment. I request 24 hours advance notice of cancellation or else I will need to charge you for that session (unless I am able to fill your time with another appointment). Please be aware that insurance companies will not reimburse for a missed appointment.
