Why am I being charged the day before my appointment?
Our policy requires patient responsibility to be collected 24 hours prior to the appointment to ensure the appointment is kept and not canceled in an untimely manner. Just as with any insurance, payment is due prior to services being rendered.
Why am I being charged more than my co-pay?
Depending on your benefits, you will be asked to pay your deductible portion and/or coinsurance if your individual out-of-pocket is remaining.
Why do you need a credit card on file?
Credit cards are required to be on file per company policy to ensure upfront patient copays, deductibles, and/or coinsurances are collected prior to the scheduled appointments

Depending on your NP or counselor, we bill under the overseeing/supervising MD who is credentialed with your insurance. This ensures your costs as the patient are kept low and processed in-network.

The self-pay rate is our fee for patients who elect not to use insurance or have no insurance. The rate is dependent upon the appointment needed.
