Co-Payments

Most insurance plans require a “Co-pay” be paid by the insured patient for office visits and other specified services such as x-rays and injections; therefore there may be more than one co-pay required. Northeast Orthopedics is required by the plans we contract with to collect your co-pay at the time you are seen and therefore, you will be expected to pay these costs in full at the time of service.  Any questions you might have regarding co-payments due should be directed to your insurance company or your employer’s human resources department.

Your Insurance Card

We require that you bring your insurance card in with you to each visit so that we can confirm your eligibility.  If you do not present your card and it is determined that you do not have coverage you will be responsible for the charges incurred at the time of service.    

You are responsible for keeping the office informed as to any changes in your insurance contract or carrier information.

Please be aware that your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance carrier and that Northeast Orthopedics is not a party to your contract.  We are pleased to provide the service of submitting claims for our patients; however we remind you that you are ultimately responsible for payment of any services provided to you.
