Multiple Services Same Day
We provide a variety of services in our office including ultrasound, bone density, urodynamics and others. If you have more than one service on the same day, you may be responsible for more than one co pay depending on your insurance benefit. At a scheduled routine physical exam, if problem issues are addressed that are not part of a routine physical, the physician is able to bill for that extra service. You may be subject to an additional co pay/deductible/coinsurance depending on your insurance coverage.
