Billing Information
Payment is due at the time of service. If you have a past due balance, please see the receptionist at the front desk.
We bill our services using a coding system known as CPT (Current Procedural Terminology). The codes used to describe these services are found in the “surgery” section of the CPT codebook. However, this does not necessarily mean or imply that we performed a surgical procedure. This is merely the way the CPT book is organized for ease of use by both the insurance companies and physicians.
According to CPT guidelines, fracture care is billed as a “packaged” service. This means that at the time of initial care a bill is generated that includes:
- Evaluation of fracture
- The first cast or splint application
- 90 days of normal, uncomplicated follow-up care
The things that are NOT INCLUDED in package are:
- X-rays
- All casting supplies (including those used in first cast or splint)
- Any replacement cast applications
- The evaluation and management of any additional problems or injuries
- The treatment of complications
- Any and ALL DME’s
There will be a separate charge for the above items.
After-hours urgent care visits: A walk-in fee applies to after-hours urgent care visits that are not scheduled in advance. This fee is due at the time of service.
Second Opinion Visits: A flat fee applies for second opinion visits, as these consultations require additional time as our doctors review prior records and perform a full evaluation. This fee is due at the time of service.
Our billing services are managed by Affinity. You may receive statements or communications from them directly, but rest assured, this is part of our normal billing process.
