  • Our Financial Policy

  • Thank you for choosing us as your healthcare provider. We are committed to your treatment being successful. Please understand that payment of your bill is considered part of your treatment. The following is a statement of our financial policy which we require you to sign prior to any treatment.

    All patients must complete our information packet and produce all insurance cards and id prior to seeing the doctor.

    CUSTOM MADE PRODUCTS (SHOES, INSERTS, ORTHOTICS, ETC.) ARE NON REFUNDABLE.

    24 Hours notice is required in the event you cannot keep your appointment. If notice is not given in a timely manner there is a mandatory $50.00 no show fee.

    ALL returned checks have a $25.00 processing fee applied to the account.

    Non insurance patients (self pay) full payment is due at time of service. We accept cash, check, credit card, etc.

    Regarding insurance

    We may accept assignment of insurance benefits. ALL co pays, coinsurance and deductibles are due at the time of service. In the event that your insurance is not in network you will be considered self pay. The balance is your responsibility whether your insurance company pays or not. Your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance company. We are not a third party to that contract. Please be aware that some, perhaps all, of the services provided may be non covered services and not considered reasonable under your insurance program.

    Usual and customary rates

    Our practice is committed to providing the best treatment for our patients and we charge what is usual and customary for our area. You are responsible for payment regardless of any insurance company’s arbitrary determination of usual and customary rates.

    Adult patients

    Adult patients are responsible for their portion of payment at the time of service depending of self pay or insurance coverage.

    Minor patients

    The accompanying parent or guardian is responsible for full payment. For non accompanying minors, non emergency treatment will be denied.

    Thank you for understanding our financial policy. Please let us know if you have any questions or concerns. I have read the financial policy. I understand and agree to this financial policy:

  • Consent for Biological Transfer

  • Florida law (Section 817 .5655, Florida Statutes) prohibits the sale or transfer of a person's biological specimen from which DNA can be extracted to a third party without the express consent of such person.

    During the course of your care at Advanced Foot and Ankle Surgery it may be medically necessary to obtain a blood, urine, stool, tissue or other type of biological specimen for analysis. This analysis will NOT involve the examination of your DNA to identify the presence and composition of genes in your body. After the analysis has been performed and the sample is no longer needed, it will be stored as medical waste and then transferred to a third party for disposal in accordance with all local, state and federal requirements.

    It may also be the case that a biological specimen (such as blood, urine, hair, bodily fluids, etc.) from you may be deposited on medical instruments, bedding, clothing or other objects. These objects may then be transferred to a third party for cleaning or disposal.

    By signing this document, you affirmatively state that it is your intentional decision to consent to the transfer of any and all biological specimens collected by or deposited with Advanced foot and Ankle Surgery to a third party as set forth above. This consent does not authorize the sale or transfer of a biological specimen for the purpose of DNA analysis.
