Medical Costs
Thank you for choosing MicroSpine for your evaluation, diagnostic testing and/or surgical procedure. Advanced healthcare doesn’t have to be expensive and often our patient’s costs are similar or less than those of conventional surgery. We believe you will find that MicroSpine is a reasonable alternative to conventional surgery. We will try to work with you to help get you the treatment you need to get back to a normal lifestyle.
We hope this web page will give you the information you need regarding the payment for your surgery. Feel free to call us at 1-888-642-7677 for any questions you have.
NEW INSURANCE INFORMATION: MICROSPINE IS NOW CONTRACTED WITH UNITED HEALTHCARE, PRIME HEALTH AND GREAT WEST INSURANCE AND WE ARE ACCEPTING THE ALLOWABLE WITH BLUE CROSS/ BLUE SHIELD OF FLORIDA, CIGNA, MAIL HANDLER'S!
MicroSpine is not a provider for many insurance companies but we are working on becoming contracted with many providers. Please contact your provider to request that they contract with us. We do honor the allowable and accept assignment for some plans: Some Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, and Mail Handler's. We are contracted with United Healthcare. You are responsible for any deductible and/or co pays required by these plans. We do file all insurance companies as a courtesy to our patients. We recommend utilizing our global fee package which caps your costs. We are trying to contract with major insurance companies and we encourage you to contact your insurance provider to see if they would be willing to contract with us for a reasonable imbursement schedule. MicroSpine does not accept any HMO's, including Medicare HMO's.
We are providers for Medicare and our facility is Medicare
approved. However, because we
are an Ambulatory Surgery Center, Medicare does not cover many of our surgeries
when performed in an Ambulatory Surgery Center.
Most diagnostic testing is covered, however there are some diagnostic
tests that are not covered by Medicare. Currently, Medicare
does cover your physician fees. What
this means to you is a possible out of pocket expense. The physician fees and covered diagnostic tests are covered
at 80% of Medicare allowable rates. You
are responsible for the other 20% and any other applicable deductible unless you
have a secondary insurance and they may cover that for you.
We offer all our patients a discount for prepayment of services. If you would like to take advantage of this plan, you are responsible for filing all your insurance. We will not file for you, unless you have Medicare. We will give you all applicable information to help you in completing your claim forms for any reimbursement.
If you have any further questions, please feel free to speak with one of our financial counselors. We also do have several financing plans available to assist you if needed.
