Payment and Insurance
We are dedicated to providing the best possible care for you and are always available to answer your questions about our financial policies.
SELF PAYING PATIENTS
Under law, each patient should receive a Good Faith Estimate pertaining to their medical care cost.
PATIENTS USING INSURANCE
All patients are expected to pay in full at the time of service, unless they have insurance benefits that cover chiropractic care. A copy of your insurance card will be made at the time of your first appointment and we will call your company to verify benefits. HMO patients must have a referral from their primary care doctor.
National University participates with a limited number of plans. If we participate with your plan, reimbursement is usually made at 80 or 90 percent of the services your company covers. Some fees are not covered and the insurance will deny payment for those. This is especially true of Medicare. In the event that your plan determines a service to be “not covered,” or applies the fee to your deductible, you will be responsible for the complete charge. Payment is due upon receipt of a statement from our office.
We will make every effort to verify your benefits accurately and in a timely fashion, usually the day of your first appointment. However, until we receive the first payment with explanation of benefits (EOB) we cannot guarantee the information we receive from the verification process.
All co-pays or your portion will be required at the time of each visit.
