also consent to the anonymous use of my data for research purposes.
I also understand that it is important to regularly consult my
physician regarding my condition and for routine physicals.
Payment is expected at the time of visit in the form of cash,
check or credit card. Our office only bills insurance companies with prior
authorization where the deductible has been met. I can also provide you with an
insurance reimbursement form to assist you in filling out insurance claim
forms. The link to verify insurance is contained in your welcome email and also
on the website. Because of the reimbursement policies of Blue cross blue shield
we do not bill BCBS directly. This office makes no guarantees or claims that
insurance will reimburse the patient for treatments.

an appointment. If I fail to give 48 hours’ notice before cancellation, I agree
to pay the full amount of the missed or canceled appointment.

not currently have a positive Covid-19 diagnosis, and have not had close
contact with anyone recently diagnosed with Covid-19. Covid-19 symptoms include
but are not limited to: fever, chills, severe headache, loss of taste or smell,
cough, chest pain, shortness of breath, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, or
diarrhea. I must respond to the Covid-19 prescreening email prior to each visit
to certify that I do not have Covid-19 symptoms. During this time of Covid-19
any suspected viral or bacterial illness is considered Covid-19 until a
negative PCR Covid-19 test is given. The 48 hour cancellation policy is waived
if Covid-19 symptoms are present.
