Have a question about insurance or fees?

The Billing Office will be happy to answer any questions you may have about insurance or fees. The Billing Office can be reached Monday - Friday, 9:00 am to 4:00 pm at (703) 780-9014 extension 55, or by fax at (703) 780-9077.

Payment:

Payment for office visits and services are due at the time of your visit. As a courtesy, we will submit bills to your insurance company for payment to ensure that you receive all benefits due to you. It is the patient's obligation to know the terms of their insurance coverage and to provide the practice with all the information necessary to process a claim.

Many insurance plans require co-payments and/or deductibles. You may pay with cash, check, Visa, or MasterCard. We will collect these at the time of your visit.

Medicare and Managed Care Plans:

We accept assignment from Medicare and participate with most managed care and health insurance plans. You may call our Billing Office at (703) 780-9014 x55 to ask if we participate with your health plan.

Unpaid Accounts:

We will bill your insurance company for covered benefits. We allow thirty (30) days for submission and processing of insurance claims. After sixty (60) days unresolved accounts will be turned over to our internal collection staff. Accounts that remain unpaid after ninety (90) days may be turned over to our legal department for collection or to an outside collection agency.

The Billing Office can assist you in meeting your financial obligations if you need to arrange a payment schedule. Contact the Billing Office for details.
