About your upcoming appointment

We look forward to the opportunity to provide your ENT healthcare needs. We know that each patient is different and has specific needs, so we strive to provide you with personal and individualized care. If you bring your cell phone to your appointment, be certain to turn it off prior to being called back into the clinic.

How to prepare for your new patient visit:

• Bring a photo ID
• Bring your Health Insurance Card
• Bring a list of all medications you are taking
• Bring a copy of any sleep studies, X-rays or CT scans taken in the last year specific to the condition we are seeing you for (not just the reports – we will need the actual films on disk if possible)
• Bring a copy of any medical record or lab test results specific to the condition we are seeing you for
• Bring a family member to take notes/help with questions, especially if there is a hearing loss or speech barrier or if the patient is coming from a nursing home
• Bring written parental authorization if someone other than parent/legal guardian accompanies a child 0-18 years of age
• Bring your insurance referral (if one is required by your insurance plan)
• Register through our Patient Portal in advance of your appointment
• Understand your insurance benefits and come prepared to pay your insurance co-pay and/or deductible
• Leave yourself plenty of time. Don't create more stress for yourself by running late to your appointment or having something scheduled immediately after your appointment.
  
  

Referrals

If your insurance requires a referral, you are responsible for obtaining the referral and seeing it reaches our office before your appointment. We also ask that you have your physician send any documentation, test results, etc. that would provide our physicians with pertinent information to help with your diagnosis and treatment. Additionally, this will help prevent unnecessary duplication of tests.

Insurance

We accept most major insurance plans. Please check with your insurance company to see that our physicians are listed on your plan. Please note that we collect insurance co-pays and deductibles at the time of your visit.

Self-pay

Self-pay patients will be required to make a payment of $80 toward the cost of their visit. Payment arrangements can be made for additional balances if necessary.

Delinquent accounts

Patients with seriously delinquent accounts will be required to make their accounts current before being seen by a provider.
