Payment for Services at Lincoln Surgical Group, PC
Thank you for choosing us for your medical and surgical needs. We are committed to you and making sure your treatment is successful. Please note that payment of your bill is considered a part of your overall treatment plan. We require every patient to read and sign our financial policy agreement prior to receiving any treatment.
Self-pay Patients
If you do not have health insurance or we are not contracted with your insurance provider, payment for your service is due at the time services are rendered unless payment arrangements have been approved in advance. A minimum payment of $100 is required at each visit but this is not be the total bill due. The remaining balance can be set up on monthly payments with no additional fees or interest added. We accept cash, check, MasterCard, Visa, American Express, and Discover. If you have questions about the payment process, please don’t hesitate to contact.
Insurance
We will file your insurance claim for all companies in our payer network. Please note that your insurance is a contract between you and your insurance company and payment to us is ultimately your responsibility. This includes returning information to your insurance regarding accident information, coordination of benefits updates, and previous medical history. You should also be aware that not all the services we provide are covered or considered reasonable and necessary under the Medicare Program and/or other health insurance companies. What one insurance covers, another may not. We do our best to advise you on coverage prior to receiving treatment.
Balances Due from the Patient
We realize financial problems can get in the way and may affect timely payment for your account. If you’re experiencing financial difficulties, please contact our office right away and we’ll do whatever we can to help you manage your account. Consistently late or missed payments can cause the account balance to be forwarded to a collection agency. If there is no evidence of payment activity on the account for more than 45 days it will be considered for the collection agency. If you have any questions, please contact our Billing Department at 402-483-7946.
