Global Wellness Clinic Financial PolicyGlobal Wellness Clinic financial policy is designed to optimize the doctor/patient relationship for the best affordable care possible. Dr. Peters will recommend the care you need regardless as to what your insurance will cover. His interest is in you. We request that you pay at time of service. This will give you the best value and assist us in keeping your health care costs down. This policy allows us to make monthly wellness visits affordable. We are happy to accept your check, Master Card or Visa. MedicareWe do accept assignment from Medicare. Reimbursement is usually sent directly to our office in payment of the services that Medicare will cover. For Chiropractors, this is ONLY for manual manipulation of the spine. Medicare pays 80% of the allowable fee once the deductible has been met. Your are required to pay the deductible and the remaining 20% as well as non-covered services. Our office completes and files the forms for Medicare at no charge. MedicaidThe policy is similar to Medicare with the exception that Medicaid does cover for spinal x-rays. You are still responsible for your co-pay at time of service. Personal Injury or Automobile AccidentsPlease notify your auto insurance carrier of your visit to our office and present insurance information to us immediately. Most auto insurances do not pay until the claim is settled. Therefore you are still responsible for payment at time of service. Ask us about payment options. "On the Job" Injury (Worker's Compensation)If you are injured on the job, your care should be paid for under employer's Worker's Compensation Insurance. You will need to inform your employer of the accident and obtain the name and address of their insurance. If your employer does not provide us with the information, or if a settlement has not been made within 3 months, or if you suspend or terminate care, all fees and services are due immediately. ChildrenThe policy of this clinic is form payments to be made in full at the time of service. If your child is a patient, payment should be sent with them at time of service. This policy helps reduce our billing costs which is reflected in our fee schedule. Remember that your child must have a consent form signed if under 18 years of age to be seen without an adult. If you have any questions/concerns, please speak to Dr. Peters. Thank you. Final NoteYour insurance coverage is a contract between you and your insurance company and it is your responsibility to know the limits and benefits. We will provide you with the receipts/forms for your reimbursement when applicable. Understand reimbursement is dependent on your individual policy.
