Insurance & Managed Care

We are committed to providing you the care you deserve. We are happy to work with you to maximize your insurance benefits. However, because it would make it impossible to provide you with proper care, we do not belong to all insurance programs. If you have a PPO or HMO program that restricts your choice of providers, we probably are not on their provider list. Please do not confuse the proper treatment for you with that for which your insurance may provide benefits. Insurance can be a great help, but the company is in business to make a profit. They may not understand nor be concerned about the treatment that is best for you. Do not let them dictate care for you. You should realize that, at a certain point, you may have to be financially responsible. It always pays in the long run.

While we will work with you to get the most benefit from your insurance company, we can only do so much. Insurance policies vary widely and we cannot always know in advance the extent or timing of their benefits. Please understand that this is your insurance, acquired by you or your employer.  My office has no contract with them and we can only do our best as a provider. Our contract is with you to care for you in the best possible way.
