 As patients approach surgery, they frequently need information about the various payment options and have questions about their potential insurance benefits. We hope the following information will be helpful.
Our financial coordinators are readily available to meet with you personally to provide the specific information you desire. They specialize in this area and will use their expertise to help you obtain the maximum benefits from your policy.
Payment Options
Payment for cosmetic plastic surgery is due in full at the time of your preoperative visit. We provide a number of payment options which may be used individually or combined according to your wishes.
CASH OR CHECK: Personal check, cashier's check, or cash.
CREDIT CARDS: Visa, Master Card, Discover or American Express.
OPTIONAL FINANCING PLANS: We will be happy to assist you with applying for financing should you so desire. We work with an independent finance company that offers affordable monthly payments. Advise our patient coordinator that you are interested in financing and would like more information.
Insurance Coverage
The benefits paid by insurance companies for plastic surgery vary greatly from carrier to carrier and plan to plan. Therefore, we make every effort to determine in advance if insurance coverage exists. We ascertain the projected insurance payment and the required co-payment. This will be collected prior to surgery. We do this because we believe you need to be as informed as possible before surgery. We know you realize that you are ultimately responsible for the full payment of your account, but we have found that our knowledge and experience can be an important factor in assisting you to collect your maximum benefits.
Please discuss all arrangements regarding payment of your account with us.
