Policies
Cancellation Policy
Appointments must be canceled at least 48 business hours before appointment to allow time to schedule other patients. Any appointment canceled within 48 hours of appointment time will be charged the full fee. Cancellation for emergencies will be considered on a case-by-case basis. This includes initial evaluations. A late cancellation or no show will be charged 250.00 for initial evaluation and 150.00 for a follow up appointment.
Late Policy
We do are best to be on time for all appointments. If you are more than 15 minutes late for your scheduled appointment you may need to reschedule or be seen after the last patient of the day if possible.
Medication Policy
Medication will be provided at your appointment to last at least until next the next appointment. Repeated requests for medication refills outside of an appointment will be subject to a 25.00 charge. Medication can only be properly assessed within an appointment and, therefore, will not be changed outside of an appointment.
Payment Policy
Both insurance and private pay options are available. Insurances accepted include Highmark and UPMC commercial plans. Medicaid is not accepted. Co-payments or private pay payments are to be paid in full by cash, check or credit card when service is rendered. There is a 3% fee for all credit card payments. The fee for private pay is 300.00 for initial one hour evaluation and 175.00 for a follow up appointment.
Discharge Policy
We reserve the right to discharge from the practice any patient who late cancels or no shows for three appointments.
