In an effort to best meet the needs of all of our patients, we would like to remind everyone of the following policies. Thank you.
APPOINTMENT CONFIRMATION/CANCELLATION POLICY
As a courtesy, you will receive a computerized call 2 days prior to your appointment to remind you of the date and time. Please follow the computer prompts to confirm. Please advise us at least 24 hours in advance if you are unable to keep your appointment in order to avoid a late cancellation fee. We will be happy to reschedule you.
MEDICATION PRESCRIPTIONS
All medication prescriptions will be given during your scheduled appointment time. These prescriptions will be for the amounts appropriate to control your pain until your next visit and must be utilized as directed by your provider. Early refills are only allowed with authorization by the prescribing physician. Refills requests cannot be given over the phone. You are responsible for your prescriptions. Stolen or lost refills will not be replaced until the date for which they were originally scheduled. We do not prescribe medication for un-diagnosed pain.
You must inform us of any prescription controlled substances you are obtaining through other physicians. Failure to do so may result in discharge from our practice. It is illegal to share prescription drugs and to alter or forge prescriptions, and our practice reserves the right to discharge patients engaging in such activities. Our practice also reserves the right to discharge patients engaging in activities considered “drug-seeking”, such as persistent medication use past the period indicated by the physician; repeated visits to emergency rooms with pain complaints; and other activities in this category, at the discretion of your provider.
FORMS AND ADDITIONAL REQUESTED SERVICES
There will be a processing fee for completing insurance and disability forms not directly associated to billing your visits. The fee will be determined by the physician, depending on the extent required of the form. This fee also applies to the insurance medication prior approval process, which your insurance carrier does not include in your physician services. We appreciate your understanding with these policies. We unfortunately cannot control the additional work insurance companies are requesting for patients and providers each year that are not included in the medical services provided. We are doing our best to make sure that we remained focused on the services we provide –medical care- in order to treat our patients with the highest level of care possible.
MEDICAL RECORDS
Please note that any requests for medical records copies needs to be in writing. We will fax records directly to your other treating providers, upon this written request, for no fee. Appropriate copying charges will apply for all others, to cover the time and resources required.
PAYMENT INFORMATION
Payment is expected at the time of service. This applies to all co-payments, co-insurances and/or deductibles based on your insurance plan.
If you have any questions or concerns regarding these policies, please feel free to contact our office directly.
