The Pediatric Care Center wants you to get the most out of your health insurance plan. One of the best ways to do so is to review your insurance plan carefully, so that you have a clear understanding of your and your child’s health insurance benefits. This will arm you with the information you need to be an effective partner with our office in managing your healthcare costs.
Health Insurance Plan Participation
Insurance plans vary in the amount they pay for office visits, laboratory tests and procedures. Most insurance companies have a toll-free number on subscribers’ cards for help with questions about coverage.
We participate with most insurance plans. Your insurance coverage and benefits are a contract between you and your insurance company. Each plan has different benefits for you, as well as different financial obligations. Not all insurance policies cover all services. It is your responsibility to check with your insurance company to determine covered benefits. We are required to file with your primary carrier only. It is your responsibility to file charges with any secondary insurance carriers for reimbursement.
We accept most insurance plans including:
- Medicaid or Husky
- Anthem
- Aetna
- Blue Cross and Blue Shield
- Connecticare
- Cigna
- United health Care
- Multiplan
- Health Net
- Tricare
If your plan is not listed please contact the office to confirm that we accept it.
Our office will contact insurance providers and cooperate with them, to help you receive your maximum insurance benefits. We participate in most health insurance plans offered in the Bristol, CT, area. If you have a health insurance plan in which we do not participate, we will provide you with a claim form, so that you can file for your benefits.
Billing, Deductibles & Co-payments
Payment is expected at the time of service. This includes co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles. Failure to produce payment at check-in may result in your appointment being rescheduled.
If you discover that your insurance company has rejected a claim based on your coverage, we cannot change the coding of the service performed.
Feel free to contact our office if you have further questions about our health insurance and billing policies.
