What if I have a HMO plan? Does the office accept HMO plans?

Managed Care Insurance Plans/HMO: Typically an authorization is required for these members. If preauthorization of services is required these arrangements must be made by your Primary Care Provider prior to scheduling an appointment. It is the patient’s responsibility to make sure this authorization has been obtained and if it has not been obtained by PCP you as the patient agree to accept all financial responsibility for the balance.  It can take up to 48-72 hours to obtain an authorization number from your insurance company therefore we advise that you make sure that we have this information BEFORE you present for your appointment.  We do reserve the right to reschedule your appointment if we do not have an authorization from your insurance.  If we do provide services to you and you do not provide us with an authorization number and you have an HMO you agree to pay your balance in full (which would be the entire balance of your visit charges as your claim would likely be denied).
