If there are any questions, we ask that you contact your insurance company directly for verification of our participation.
It is your responsibility to inform us immediately upon your arrival of any changes to your insurance information. Failure to do so could result in higher costs for you if claims are not submitted to the correct insurance company or submitted beyond the contracted filing limit.
The billing department staff can help you with any insurance questions you may have regarding how your claim was filed and to whom. However, any issues regarding your specific individual coverage as stated in your contract should be directed to member services or your group plan administrator.
