Patient Information

Helping Patients in North Central Arkansas & South Central Missouri for 50+ Years

With regards to billing, we participate with Medicare (Medicare Assignment), and bill all charges directly to them. Since we participate with Medicare, we accept their allowable charge as our payment. This means, after you meet your deductible for the year, Medicare will pay 80% of the allowable charge. If you have Co-Insurance, we will also submit charges to them for payment.

The center participates with a multitude of private insurance companies. In order to verify that the clinic is participating with your specific insurance plan, it will be your responsibility to contact them and verify that we are on their list of participating providers. We accept VISA and MasterCard as methods of payment should you choose to use these.

A list of several insurance companies we participate with are:

• Aetna
• Cigna
• Encompass
• GEHA
• QualChoice
• Tricare
• Blue Cross Blue Shield
• United Healthcare
