Financial Responsibility
At the office of Aaron G. Margulies, MD, PLLC, we strive to give you the best possible care. In order to serve this purpose, it is important that our patients understand the process of reimbursement. Please read this Financial Responsibility Form and sign to acknowledge that you understand your accountability.
Insurance Coverage
It is your responsibility to be aware of your insurance coverage, policy provisions, exclusions and limitations, as well as, authorization requirements. This information can be obtained by contacting your insurance carrier.
We attempt to verify that your coverage is valid at the time of your visit. However, if your coverage is not in effect at the time of the visit, the financial responsibility for any payment due will be yours.
*If you have any changes in your insurance coverage you must notify us prior to your appointment.
Deductibles, Coinsurance and Copayments
The deductible is determined by your individual contract with your insurance carrier. You are responsible for your deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance. Your insurance company expects us to collect them from you at the time of service. Understand that you will be expected to pay deductibles, coinsurance and copayments, when this applies.
Non-covered Services and Medical Necessity
All patients are responsible for account balances if their insurance carrier denies payment for services rendered because they were stated as “non-covered services” or deemed as “medically unnecessary.” To avoid this, please check with your insurance carrier prior to receiving any treatment or services.
By signing below, I authorize the release of any medical information necessary to process insurance claims filed to my insurance carrier on my behalf or on the behalf of my dependents. I authorize payment for medical benefits to be made directly to my physician for services rendered at the office of Aaron G. Margulies, MD, PLLC.
