  • Statement of Patient Financial Responsibility

  • Apple Ridge Family Medicine appreciates the confidence you show in choosing us to provide for your health care needs.  The services you have elected to participate in, implies a financial responsibility on your part. The responsibility obligates you to ensure payment in full of your fees. As a courtesy, we will bill your insurance carrier/s on your behalf. However, you are ultimately responsible for payment in full of your bill.

    Many insurance companies have additional stipulations that may affect your coverage.  It is ultimately the patients/guarantor’s responsibility to know your coverage benefits. I authorize Apple Ridge Family Medicine to furnish information to insurance carriers concerning my care. You are responsible for any amounts not covered by your insurance. If your insurance carrier denies any part of your claim, or if you elect to continue services past your coverage/policy period, you will be responsible for your balance in full.

    You are responsible for the payment of any deductible, co-payments/coinsurance as determined by your contract with your insurance carrier.  Some health insurance carriers require the patient to pay a co-pay for services rendered.  This is a contract between you and your insurance carrier.  Payment of all co-pays is expected at the time of service is rendered for the patient.  If you do not have the co-pay, you may be asked to reschedule.

  • We understand that things happen where you can’t make your appointment. We do ask for a 24 hour notice in cancellations and rescheduling’s.  If you do not show for your appointment, please note this is how Apple Ridge will handle no shows and improper notice of cancellations.

    You are allowed the following within a 365 day period. The policy resets 365 days from the first offense.

    ·       Your first ‘No Show’ is a verbal warning.  One of our staff members will call you and alert you to the no show.  If this is an improper cancellation notice, you will receive the verbal warning at the time of your phone call.

    ·       Your second ‘No Show’ or improper cancellation notice would be a charge of $50 dollars. You would be verbally notified of this charge.

    ·       Your third ‘No Show’ or improper cancellation notice would result in a discharge from the practice. This is not guaranteed to be told you verbally.  You would receive a letter within 3-4 business days of the third ‘No Show’.  That letter explains to you the policy and that you will receive thirty (30) days of emergency care by the practice. This would be the time we advise you to search for another physician.

    Please note we have a policy that if you arrive 10 minutes late for an appointment, you will be asked to reschedule.  This does not fall into the ‘No Show’ or improper cancellation notice policy.  We will simply need to reschedule your appointment.  We will do our best to accommodate you based on the physician’s schedule. This policy is in place to not disrespect other patient’s appointment times.
