Insurance

We accept most insurance carriers, commercial, Medicare and Medicaid. We not only want to help ensure that you will have the coverage you need but to try and help eliminate the worry, so you can concentrate on treatment and recovery. One of our services is to try to obtain preauthorization (verbal approval from the insurance companies or Medicare/Medicaid) for chemotherapy, PET scans and radiation therapy.

Please bring your insurance identification card(s) with you. A photocopy will be placed in your billing file. If you are covered by more than one insurance company, please let us know which company is the primary carrier. This will help to avoid any delays in receiving benefits. If there is any change in your health coverage, please contact the office to update your records.

Your insurance policy is a contract between you and the insurance company. We participate with most major insurance companies and will submit claims to your carrier on your behalf. Medicaid patients are welcome. We also accept Medicare assignment --- however, you will be responsible for the deductible and your 20% co-payment for Medicare's allowed charges for physician care, chemotherapy drugs, and laboratory tests.

Some insurance companies require you to use a specific laboratory or to obtain referrals or pre-authorization for office visits, hospital admissions, and treatment. It is your responsibility to obtain the initial referral and bring this with you on the first day of your first visit.

If you need assistance with your insurance requirements, our staff will make every effort to help you.
