Insurance and Payment
MEDICARE AND “IN NETWORK” INSURANCE
Greentree Dermatology accepts Medicare and is “in network” for most major insurances. Please contact your insurance company to determine whether Greentree Dermatology is “in network” for your insurance plan. You may also follow up with us if you have questions as to whether we are “in network”.
Most insurance plans have deductibles, copays, and coinsurance provisions. Patients are expected to pay these fees at the time of the visit. If you have a high deductible health plan or “HDHP” and you have not met the deductible for your insurance plan, you will be expected to pay the full fee at the time of your visit.
In determining fees, we use what we believe to be the “in network” fee for you insurance plan. After the insurance plan processes the claim, the fee approved by the plan may be more or less. In this situation, you may receive a supplemental invoice depending upon how the claim is processed by your plan. In other situations, you might receive a refund or credit due to overpayment. A credit may be used to offset future fees due or may be refunded to you via check.
OUT-OF-NETWORK INSURANCE
If Greentree Dermatology is not “in network” with your insurance, you are welcome to be seen as a patient. Fees are due and payable at the time of your visit. We will issue you an insurance coded, itemized receipt that you may file with your insurer for reimbursement under the terms of your insurance plan.
PATIENTS WITHOUT INSURANCE
Greentree Dermatology welcomes individuals who do not have insurance. We will provide you with a fee estimate in advance of the procedure. Fees are due and payable at the time of your visit.
COSTMETIC DERMATOLOGY
Cosmetic Dermatology is not covered by insurance. Patients with new procedures pay a cosmetic consultation fee first. After the consultation, you will be provided with a fee estimate in advance of the cosmetic procedure. The fee will be reduced by the cosmetic consultation fee if you have the service performed within 30 days of the consultation. Cosmetic fees are due and payable at the time of your visit.
PAYMENT FORMS ACCEPTED
Greentree Dermatology accepts cash and Visa, MasterCard, American Express, and Discover credit cards. Personal checks may be accepted on limited terms.
