Pediatric Wizards Insurance and Billing Polices

Billing

When visiting our office, please bring your most current insurance card to ensure the information is valid at the time of service. Incorrect or out-of-date information will delay your claim and you may be held responsible to full payment of the claim.

The insurance companies do not supply us with claim forms or policy numbers. If your insurance company requires specific forms, it is your responsibility to provide our office with the same. We must emphasize we cannot accept responsibility for collecting or negotiating insurance claims. We will gladly assist in completion of required additional forms and supplying additional information and/or patient records.

Payment

Payment is due at time of service and is collected at check-in. This includes co-pay, co-insurance, deductible, and/or any outstanding balance on the account. As a reminder, billing a health insurance provider on your behalf is a courtesy we provide to our patients.

Payment may be made with cash, check, MasterCard, Visa and Discover. Co-payment is determined from your insurance card, which you must bring with you to each visit. There will be a $25 charge for all returned checks and we will no longer accept checks as payment for future visits.

For all services rendered to minors, the adult accompanying the patient is responsible for payment, whether a parent/legal guardian or not. If your child will be brought to the appointment by someone other than his guardian, be sure he or she is aware of this policy.
