Please Bring Your Insurance Card
We will submit a claim to all primary and secondary insurances. Please remember to bring your current insurance cards to your appointment. Once your insurance company has processed your claim, we will bill you for the remaining balance if any. Payments are expected upon receipt of your statement. We accept Visa, MasterCard, Discover, Cash, Checks, Debit Cards and Money Orders.
If You Are Uninsured
If you are uninsured, we will take care of your child and will make arrangements as necessary. Westwind Pediatric Clinic offers a discount at the time of visit for uninsured patients. We offer a 20% discount on physician’s services.
Following Guidelines
Physicians must follow accepted national guidelines when determining what your charges (level of service) will be. They must code your visit based upon what services were provided and cannot take into account particular health plan benefit designs. Consequently we are unable to switch the visit reason and diagnosis in order for a claim to be covered by your insurance. If you think there is an error on your account, please contact the billing office immediately. We will review your concern with the physician and let you know the outcome.
Newborns
You should contact your insurance company as soon as possible after your child has been born. Most health plans allow 30 days to add your newborn to your insurance plan.
If you are unable to keep your appointment, please call at least 24 hours in advance to cancel.
Please bring your current insurance card to every appointment, and alert the receptionist of any changes when checking in for your appointment.
Insurance co-payments are due at the time of the visit.
