Financial Policies Thank you for choosing ANA Pain Management, PC. We are committed to the treatment of your condition. In order to provide your care, we require both treatment and financial compliance. Your clear understanding of our policies is important to our professional relationship. If your insurance plan requires a copayment, it is payable at the time of service. If you present without the copayment, we reserve the right to reschedule you or to bill you a $10.00 administration fee. We are happy to bill your primary insurance company directly if a copy of both sides of your insurance card is provided at the time of service as well as all required demographic information necessary to fi le your claim. If you fail to provide the necessary demographic information to fi le your claim, you will be responsible for payment in full at the time of service. If payment is not received from your insurance company in ninety days, you will be expected to assist in the resolution of the open claim. If the claim continues to be unpaid after 120 days, we reserve the right to bill you directly. It is in your best interest to ensure that the correct insurance information is provided at the time of service. If you have HMO coverage, it is your responsibility to obtain the necessary referral for your visit or procedure and forward a copy of this referral to our office prior to your visit or procedure. Filing secondary is a courtesy to the patient and we will make one attempt to do so and then the balance will be your responsibility. If we receive payment from you and your secondary carrier, a refund of the overpayment will be made to you. We will not fi le tertiary insurance, but will provide a claim to you upon request. You are responsible for all tertiary balances. All patients are expected to pay at the time of service. We accept cash, check, and money order, Master Card, Visa, American Express and Discover. Self-pay patients are required to pay in full at the time of service. If for any reason a payment is dishonored by your bank, there will be a $40.00 service fee added to your bill and you will be required to pay by cash, certified check, money order or credit card for all future services. We do accept Workers Compensation and Personal Injury cases. We will only fi le these claims with your regular insurance if a written denial from the workers compensation or personal injury carrier is received. We accept liens only for services provided in our office. All necessary legal contact information must be provided in advance of your service to allow us time to process the necessary lien paperwork. We are participating providers for many plans. However, it is your responsibility to verify that the provider you are to see is in your network. If the provider is out of network and you see this physician, you are responsible for payment in full regardless of any insurance plan s arbitrary determination of usual and customary fees. There may be times when our physician is out of the office and you are required to see a physician who is not in your network. In these instances, we will work with your insurance plan to obtain in-network benefits and you will not be responsible for payment of the entire fee. If you fail to meet your financial obligations in a timely manner, we reserve the right to discontinue care and refer your account to collections. You are responsible for any agency, attorney, interest and other charges associated with collections.
