Crown OB/Gyn Billing & Insurance
INSURANCE POLICY
The physicians at Crown OB/Gyn participate with many insurance companies and managed care networks. Because plan names and benefits change frequently, prior to your visit please contact your insurance carrier to confirm your benefits and verify our participation in your plan. Please remember that the insurance company will only provide an estimate of benefits and not a guarantee of payment. In order for us to bill your insurance company, we ask that you present your insurance card to the receptionist at each visit.
Depending on your insurance coverage, you may be responsible for co-payments, co-insurance, or other deductible amounts.
You are welcome to contact our in-house billing department to discuss your insurance coverage: 617-471-1161. You can also call your insurance carrier should you have any questions.
REFERRAL
Some insurance companies require a referral from your Primary Care Physician to be seen by an OB/Gyn. Please check with your provider and insurance carrier before scheduling an appointment.
All referrals must be obtained prior to your appointment.
BILLING POLICY
Co-Payments
All co-payments will be due and collected at the time of service.
Co-Insurance and Deductible Responsibilities
We will make every effort to verify your co-insurance and/or deductible amounts prior to your delivery, surgery, or procedure. Any out-of-pocket expenses are due prior to the services.
Payment Plans
Our billing department is available to work with you in setting up a payment plan for large balances. Please contact one of our Billing Specialists at 617-471-1161 to discuss payment plan options. For your convenience, we accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express.
No Insurance/Self-Pay Patients:
Payment in full is due at the time of service for office visits. Payment plans are available for delivery, surgery, or procedures and can be arranged by calling one of our Billing Specialists at 617-471-1161.
Past Due Accounts:
In the event that a balance becomes past due, your account will be considered delinquent and subject to collection action. As a final step, past due accounts will be referred to an outside collection agency and become the responsibility of the agency.
Returned Checks: A fee of $25 for checks returned to us with insufficient funds will be charged to your account.
