Office Policies & Forms

 

Patient Rights & Responsibilities

Thank you for trusting us with your child's healthcare.  We strive to provide care that is exemplary in quality and compassionate in delivery.  In treating your child, we follow guidelines established by the American Academy of Pediatrics and deliver evidence based recommendations. 

We are dedicated to the protection of your family's personal data. Our Patient Privacy Policy describes the rights you have over your data.

Vaccination Policy

Vaccines are lifesaving and safe.  We follow the vaccination schedule published by the Center for Disease Control. 

In consideration for our patients' health and community members, we require all patients to be up to date on their vaccinations. 

Cancellation & Late Arrival Policy

To ensure we remain available for children who are in need of care, we have a strict 3-strikes policy.  After 3 times arriving 15+ minutes late or missing an appointment, families will be dismissed from the practice.

We also kindly request 24 hours notice for any cancellations.

Financial & Office Policies

We strive to be transparent about the policies & responsibilities that exist to enhance our ability to provide great, seamless care for our patients in our Financial & Office Policies. Some examples include:

Providing Insurance Information: Accurate and current information must be provided for all visits.   

Knowing Your Benefits: Understanding your insurance plan copay, deductible and coinsurance responsibilities helps avoid surprises. 

Card on File: Patients are required to keep a credit/debit card on file to cover services that are not paid for insurance.

After Hours Care: Evening (after 5pm), weekend and holiday visits (includes all federal holidays) have a $30 convenience charge.   

PCP Designation: If your insurance requires a Primary Care Physician designation, you must name our practice as  the PCP prior to your visit.

Form Return Process and Form Repository

Prior to your scheduled visit, you will receive any required forms via text through the Spruce app.

Forms can be printed, completed and then texted back using Spruce by scanning or taking a picture of all pages of your completed forms.
