Do I have to pay the membership fee in order to become a patient?

We require an annual fee to become a patient in our practice. This allows you to get exceptional care, a focus on prevention, and time with your doctor which is not normally available to the general public. This enables us to spend more time with each patient to better customize the care of an individual’s health needs and provides a higher level of care to its patients.

 

Do I have to pay the membership fee all at once?

The fee can be paid annually, semi-annually or quarterly. We accept American Express, Master Card, Visa, Discover Card, cash or check. We also accept HSA and FSA funds, however, it is your responsibility to ensure use is in accordance with the IRS and applicable tax laws. Please refer to your plan for specific requirements.

 

Is the membership fee tax deductible?

The membership fee may be tax-deductible, please check with your tax advisor.  

 

Does insurance cover the annual fee? 

While traditional insurance does not cover the membership fee, it will continue to pay for any office visits, tests, labs, medications and hospitalizations. Copays, co-insurances and deductibles will apply.

 

Do I have to pay for my children?

As a courtesy, we will treat children who are under the age of 25 under your membership. Standard office visit fees apply. 

I have family members who often visit me, can they be seen if needed?

In the event you have an out of town guest who may require services on an unexpected basis, we will see your guest for urgent matters as if he/she were a member of the practice. Standard office visit fees apply.
