Follow-Up Visits
Payment
Dr. Mauss does not participate with any insurance companies. Payment for services can be paid with cash, check or credit card at the time of the visit. An invoice documenting the office visit and costs will be generated for the patient at each visit. The patient is then responsible to submit the claim for the visit to their insurance company. The patient is also responsible for any further contact with their insurance company regarding reimbursement.
Insurance companies will typically reimburse the patient’s costs to the extent allowed for an out-of-network provider and with consideration to the out-of-network deductibles. It is recommended that patients contact their insurance company, in advance, to inquire about whether their costs will be covered.
Dr Mauss is a non-participating provider with Medicare. This means the patient will pay at time of service and then be reimbursed by Medicare. In this case, our office will be responsible for submitting the claims to Medicare. As with other traditional insurance plans, Medicare Advantage Plans, such as Medicare HMO’s and PPO’s claims will still need to be submitted by the patient. Dr. Mauss does not participate with Medicare Advantage Plans.
