The provider is not always current and it is impossible for our office to verify every patient s insurance. This will keep the patient from possibly owing a large out of pocket expense. Referrals: Patients whose insurance requires a referral are responsible to contact their primary care physician and have them initiate it with your insurance provider. If the patient requires a referral and we have not received it by the time of your visit, the patient will be responsible for the total charge of the visit at the time of service.
