PATIENT RESPONSIBILITIES AND STATEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING In the current healthcare environment, it is increasingly difficult for medical providers to be paid for their services. Dealing with insurance companies is also becoming more confusing to our patients. As a result, we would like to clarify your responsibilities as a Valley Medical Group patient. Insurance Coverage Your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance company, not your provider. Changes to your insurance coverage must be communicated to our office at the time of service upon check-in. Your insurance company may require you to choose a primary care physician in order to receive in network benefits. If you have chosen a Valley Medical Group physician as your PCP and his or her name does not appear on your insurance card, you must verify that your insurance company has the correct information before services are rendered. If your claim is processed incorrectly by your insurer, you give Valley Medical Group permission to appeal the claim on your behalf by your signature below. If your insurance plan requires a PCP and the Valley Medical Group physician is not your PCP, you may be responsible for deductibles, co-insurance, and other non-covered services. If your plan requires referrals from your Valley Medical Group PCP to specialists, it is your responsibility to obtain the referral from our office prior to your appointment with the specialists. Please be aware that non-emergent referrals can take up to two weeks to process. In addition, referrals will NOT be dated retroactively. Financial Obligations 1. Co-payments are due at the time of service. 2. Valley Medical Group will bill participating insurance companies after verifying coverage. If claims are not paid, Valley Medical Group will bill you for services rendered. 3. Payment for non-covered services, deductibles, and co-insurance amounts are due within thirty (30) days of receipt of invoice. 4. If insurance payments are paid to you in error instead of Valley Medical Group, the payment must be forwarded to us. You may issue a personal check to Valley Medical Group. Be sure to include a copy of your insurance company s documentation or explanation of benefits. 5. If you do not have insurance that Valley Medical Group participates with, you are responsible for payment in full for today s services. 6. Processing fees may be imposed for non-payment of out-of-pocket expenses referenced in #1 and #5 above, and for checks returned by the bank for non-payment. 7. Valley Medical Group bills an additional fee for weekend and holiday visits. 8. If requested, you are responsible for providing your insurance company with any other insurance coverage, details of an injury, dependent student information, and other non-medical information. Failure to comply with an insurance company request for information will result in your being responsible for payment.
