Verify Your Insurance Eligibility
Some government and most private insurance plans pay only a portion of the fee for service or for products. The patient is responsible for paying any balance not covered by insurance.
We make every effort to ensure the information presented on our website and in the clinic is accurate. However, please verify your own eligibility and coverage amounts with your insurer. You are responsible for the cost of all services rendered. We cannot be responsible if your insurer declines a claim and refunds are not available for services already completed.
What if I have multiple insurance plans?
Most plans allow for co-ordination of benefits to combine benefits from multiple plans (with the exception of certain social services and Indian Affairs plans which will only act as a payer-of-last-resort and do not allow combined billing with other plans).
Many patients find they are covered under multiple insurance plans (i.e. a student insurance plan and their parents' insurance plans). In this case, we will usually direct bill the primary insurance and the patient may submit their own claim to the secondary insurance plan(s) for further coverage.
