Financial Responsibility Policy

aceepts-insuranceFinancial Responsibility Policy 2016 PDF Download

Financial responsibility is determined first, by the insured, and second by the adult signing the patient in at the time of the appointment.  Please note that both, if different, will be submitted to collection agencies should the financial obligations of appointments not be met in a timely manner.

Charges will be accumulated and routinely filed with your insurance company during the course of treatment by Peter N. Schochet, MD Charges not covered by your insurance, patient co-pays, deductibles, and co-insurance will be your responsibility and are due at the time of service.

If your insurance company requires a referral from your primary care physician, you will need to contact your PCP for the referral. Treatment provided by this office without the required referral will serve as your consent for treatments not covered by insurance, and will be payable at the time of service.

Divorce and Separated Parents

  • It is not this office’s legal responsibility or desire to arbitrate or enforce legal divorce judgments. Our responsibility is to provide quality child and adolescent health care.
  • If in the divorce settlement, only 1 (one) parent is assigned responsibility for the medical expenses of the child, and the “non-assigned” parent presents with the child seeking medical attention, it is the presenting parent’s responsibility to provide payment for those medical services as rendered, and then in turn forward the medical statement to the “assigned” parent for reimbursement.
  • It is NOT our office’s responsibility to collect payment from the absent parent, even though that parent has been assigned responsibility of the child’s medical expenses. This is a matter that should be resolved by the parents outside this office.
