Payment for Services: Fees and Insurance 

I accept two public health insurance options, Medicaid (Husky) and Medicare, and I am in-network with one commercial insurer, Anthem. If you have out of network coverage with other insurers, I provide the necessary information for you to be reimbursed for the costs of services. You can call your insurance company to find out your policy details.

I’m Here When You Have Questions or Concerns
Please contact me me to inquire about costs for the services you are considering. Also, feel free to contact me if you have any questions you might have that we haven’t covered on the website, or if you would like to set up an appointment.

Good Faith Estimate 

As part of recently passed legislation called The No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
  • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
  • If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
  • Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
