      I understand that all financial obligations for services are due from me when treatment is rendered. I also understand that I am completely responsible for medical treatment, including any fees charged for returned checks, regardless of any payer, third-party interest, or the resolution of any legal action or lawsuits in which I may be involved. Paying by check authorizes Baker Rehab Group to use the information from your check to make a one-time electronic fund transfer from your account. Funds may be withdrawn from your account as soon as your payment is received. If we cannot process the transaction electronically, you authorize Baker Rehab Group to present an image copy of your check for payment. Your original check will be destroyed once processed.
