Co-Payments

Many insurances require a co-pay at the time of service. If you do not pay your co-pay at the time of service, your account will be charged an additional $10.00.

Please Bring Your Insurance Card

We will submit a claim to all primary and secondary insurances. Please remember to bring your current insurance cards to your appointment. Once your insurance company has processed your claim, we will bill you for the remaining balance. Payments are expected upon receipt of your statement.

If You Are Uninsured

If you are uninsured, or if we are unable to verify coverage, we require a $100.00 payment at your first visit which will be applied to your charges. If charges exceed the $100.00 we will send you a statement.

King Pediatric Clinic, LLC offers a discount at the time of visit for uninsured patients. We offer a 100% discount on physician’s services, (as the Lord directs).

Unpaid Accounts

We assign all unpaid accounts to an outside collection agency that report to a national credit bureau. They will add additional penalties and interest to the unpaid amount.

Following Guidelines

Physicians must follow accepted national guidelines when determining what your charges (level of service) will be. They must code your visit based upon what services were provided and cannot take into account particular health plan benefit designs. Consequently we are unable to switch the visit reason and diagnosis in order for a claim to be covered by your insurance. If you think there is an error on your account, please contact the billing office immediately. We will review your concern with the physician and let you know the outcome.

Newborns

You should contact your insurance company as soon as possible after your child has been born. Most health plans allow 30 days to add your newborn to your insurance plan. If you are unable to provide proof of insurance after your baby’s two week appointment, we will charge you in full for services rendered.

Appointment Policies

If you are unable to keep your appointment, please call at least 24 hours in advance to cancel.

Patient visits at King Pediatric Clinic, LLC are by appointment only. Every sibling will need to have an appointment in order to be seen by the doctor. We will try and fit in an urgent visit without an appointment on a case-by-case basis.

Please bring your current insurance card to every appointment, and alert the receptionist of any changes when checking in for your appointment.

Insurance co-payments are due at the time of the visit.
