Financial Policy for Potomac Podiatry Group, PLLC

Payment in full is due at time of service unless prior arrangements have been made.
Office visit co-payments for our participating HMO/PPO insurances are due at the time of service. If we have to generate a billing statement to collect your co-payment there will be a billing fee of $6.00 added for the administrative costs of billing.
If we are a participating provider with your primary health insurance, we are happy to file a claim on your behalf. However, once the insurance company is billed we allow 45 days for the balance to be paid by your insurance carrier. If the insurance carrier does not remit payment within 45 days, the balance will be due in full from you. If any payment is subsequently made by you insurance carrier in excess of the balance, we will gladly refund the overpayment to you within 30 days, providing that you do not have any outstanding accounts in our office.
HMO/PPO claim denials due to no referral or authorization are the patient’s responsibility. Office staff will notify and assist you in referral/precertification procedures, but final responsibility lies with the patient to comply with their specific insurance’s requirements. All referrals must be presented to our business office before seeing the doctor.
Please present your insurance card each time you visit if we participate with your plan to insure proper filing information to submit claims. *Otherwise your visit may not be covered and you will be responsible for payment.
There is a $35.00 charge for all returned checks.
Please be on time for your appointment. If you need to reschedule you appointment, we require a minimum of 24 hour notice. If you miss a scheduled appointment without notifying our office a $50.00 charge will be added to your account.
If your account must be forwarded to a collection service and/or an attorney because of non-payment, you will be responsible for all collection fees and/or attorney fees by these services.
