Billing & Insurance

Health Insurance

We bill participating insurance companies for you, including secondary insurance. In order to file claims with contracted insurance plans, we must have completed financial information forms and a copy of insurance card(s) for each covered member on file. After insurance has responded on charges, any outstanding balance is due at the first billing.

Insurance Cards

Please bring your child’s current insurance card with you to every visit. This helps ensure that the proper information is processed, and the appropriate insurance is billed for that day’s visit.

Co-Pays & Deductibles

Depending on your insurance policy, a copayment and/or deductible may be required at the time of service. We accept cash, checks, money order, debit cards, MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American Express.

Plan Changes

If your insurance plan or carrier changes, it is your responsibility to notify our office. If our office is not notified of insurance changes within 30 days of filing a claim, the account holder will be held responsible for the charge.

Questions

Please remember that health insurance contracts are made between the insurance company and the insured, and it is your responsibility to see that claims are filed correctly. If PAC is not a participating provider for your plan, you can file claims for office visits yourself by attaching an encounter form summary to your standard insurance form. In the case that we are a non-participating provider, you will be asked to pay in full at the time of service.

Please do not hesitate to contact our business office with concerns about your account. We will do our best to answer any questions regarding how your insurance provider processes your claims.

For Self Pay patients we can provide a good faith estimate. Please read the “No Surprises Act” below.
