Thank you for choosing Orthopaedic Associates, P.A. for your orthopedic care. We are dedicated to ensuring you receive the best care available. In return our patients are financially responsible for the services we provide. We bill your insurance carrier with the information given us and make every effort to collect for services rendered. However, payment is still expected within 90 days from the date of service. We require co-payments, deductible amounts and non-covered services be paid for at the time of service. We are participating with Medicare and accept assignment on your claims. We will bill Medicare and any supplemental policy you may have first. Once they have processed and paid your claims we will then send you a bill for any balance remaining. For our patients without health insurance coverage we do require a payment of $150.00 at the initial visit. We will then require monthly payment arrangements be made on any unpaid balance and a minimum payment be made at each additional visit. Surgical services do require a deposit based on estimated costs 48 hours prior to the scheduled procedure. Monthly payment arrangements must then be made on the balance. You will be required to sign a payment contract if surgery is needed. We accept cash, check and major credit cards for your convenience. The billing department is available from 8:30 am- 4:30 pm Monday through Friday to address any concerns or questions you may have. By signing and dating below, I acknowledge I have read and understand and will comply with the above policies. _______________________________ ________________________ Signature Date ORTHOPAEDIC ASSOCIATES NOTICE OF PRIVACY PRACTICE
