In the typical insurance-based healthcare model, patients often experience rushed appointments, with physicians generally able to spend only 15-20 minutes per visit.
We operate out-of-network with insurance plans, offering a fee-for-service model that we believe allows us to provide high-quality care.
Advantages of our fee-for-service model include:
More time with patients: We typically spend about 60 minutes or more on initial visits and about 45 minutes on follow-up visits, depending on the patient’s needs. We do not rush our patients.
Prompt communication: We are accessible and responsive to our patients, providing more direct access to the physician.
Personalized care: We offer highly personalized care in a non-judgmental and comfortable environment.
For those whose insurance we do not accept, our services are priced to be less than the out-of-pocket expenses at traditional insurance-based practices. This way, you receive personalized care without paying premium prices. Patients can use Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA) ,Health Savings Accounts (HSA) , credit cards or cash for consultation costs and their healthcare insurance for lab work, imaging, and prescriptions. After your appointment, we provide a superbill for you to submit to your insurance carrier for potential out-of-network reimbursement. Most PPO plans offer out-of-network benefits, and we can guide you through this process. Eligible reimbursements will be paid directly to you by your insurance company if you have benefits.
No insurance? No worries! For uninsured patients or those with high out-of-pocket costs due to high deductible health plans, we offer affordable pricing and wholesale rates for common blood lab tests, pap and HPV tests, STI tests, urine tests, and pathology tests. Please inquire directly for pricing.
