Insurance
NEA Clinic's insurance department files each patient's claims with
their primary and secondary insurance carriers. This includes all
commercial carriers as well as Medicare and Medicaid. Patients are
requested to assist by bringing all insurance information at the time of
their first visit. If there is only one insurance carrier, clinic
policy requires payment of 20% at that time, plus any deductible not met
for the year. If there is no insurance coverage, payment in full is
customary, unless other arrangements have been made prior to the clinic
visit.
Accounts
Financial responsibility for medical services lies with the patient
and not an insurance company or government agency. Patients are expected
to keep their accounts current.
Fees
Fees will vary for various conditions, but generally reflect the
specialized ability and time devoted to each problem. Return visits
require less extensive evaluation and time with the doctor; accordingly,
fees are lower. Our policy is open disclosure of fees to our patients
at any time upon request.
