Premier Internal Medicine of Alpharetta, PC FINANCIAL POLICY Thank you for choosing Premier Internal Medicine of Alpharetta, PC for your health care needs. We are committed to building a successful physician-patient relationship with you. Your clear understanding of our Patient Financial Policy is important to our professional relationship. Please understand that payment for services is a part of that relationship. Please ask if you have any questions about our fees, our policies, or your responsibilities. It is your responsibility to notify our office of any patient information changes (i.e. name, address, insurance information, etc). Co-pays The patient is required to present a current insurance card and picture ID at each visit. If you do not provide proof of insurance, you will be responsible for the claim. All co-payments and past due balances are due at time of checkin. We accept cash, debit and credit cards. We do not accept checks. Insurance Claims Insurance is a contract between you and your insurance company. Understanding your insurance benefits is your responsibility. Therefore, please be sure that you verify that our physician is in your network, what your out-ofnetwork benefits are, and what your insurance covers. If you have questions about your coverage, please contact your insurance company with any questions before your appointment. We will bill your primary insurance company as a courtesy to you. In order to properly bill your insurance company, we require that you disclose all insurance information including primary and secondary insurance, as well as, any change of insurance information. Failure to provide complete insurance information may result in patient responsibility for the entire bill. Although we may estimate what your insurance company may pay, it is the insurance company that makes the final determination of your eligibility and benefits. If your insurance company is not contracted with us, you agree to pay any portion of the charges not covered by insurance, including but not limited to those charges above the usual and customary allowance. If we are out of network for your insurance company and your insurance pays you directly, you are responsible for payment and agree to forward the payment to us immediately. If your insurance plan is one with which we are not a participating provider, you will be responsible for payment in full. However, as a courtesy, we will file your initial insurance claim and if not paid within 30 days you will be responsible. Referrals and Preauthorizations

Certain health insurances (HMO, POS, etc.) require that you obtain a referral or prior authorization from you Primary Care Provider (PCP) before visiting a specialist. If your insurance company requires a referral and/or preauthorization, you are responsible for obtaining it. Failure to obtain the referral and/or preauthorization may result in a lower or no payment from the insurance company, and the balance will be your responsibility. Alternative payment arrangements or rescheduling of your appointment may be necessary if not obtained. Self-pay Accounts Self-pay accounts are patients without insurance coverage, patients covered by insurance plans in which the office does not participate, or patients without an insurance card on file with us. It is always the patient s responsibility to know if our office is participating with their plan. If there is a discrepancy with our information, the patient will be considered self-pay unless otherwise proven. Self-pay patients are required to submit full payment at the time of service. Please ask to speak with a billing coordinator to discuss a mutually agreeable payment plan. It is never our intention to cause hardship to our patients, only to provide them with the best care possible and the least amount of stress. Missed Appointments Premier Internal Medicine of Alpharetta, PC requires 24-hour notice of appointment cancellation. Appointments missed that are not previously canceled may be charged a fee of $25.00. Medical Record Copies Patients requesting copies of medical records will be charged: $15 under 10 pages $25 under 20 pages $35 21 to 49 pages $50 over 50 pages Outstanding Balance Policy It is our office policy that all past due accounts be sent two statements. If payment is not made on the account, a single phone call will be made to try to make payment arrangements. If no resolution can be made, the account will be sent to the collection agency, and may result in discharge from the practice. In the event an account is turned over for collections, the person financially responsible for the account will be responsible for all collections costs, including attorney fees and court costs. Regardless of any personal arrangements that a patient might have outside of our office, if you are over 18 years of age and receiving treatment, you are ultimately responsible for payment of the service. Our office will not bill any

other personal party. This financial policy helps the office provide quality care to our valued patients. If you have any questions or need clarification of any of the above policies, please feel free to contact us.
