Occasionally, there may be additional fees for the time it takes our staff to complete additional paperwork or extra tasks that are done on your behalf. We will inform you beforehand if extra fees are involved. These include:

  • Biopsies/Laboratory studies: Your insurance information will be sent to the outside lab which will utilize your insurance first for the billing of any ordered tests and/or biopsy studies. These labs are unassociated with our practice. You may be billed for any portion not covered by your insurance. For uninsured patients, these outside labs will offer discounted self-pay rates. These bills will come directly to you and will not be from our office.

  • $5: Forms to be prepared for any outside entity (not including other physician offices)

  • $25: Prior authorizations (PA) for medications

    • PAs are often required for specialty medications such as psoriasis and eczema injectable biologic medications, isotretinoin, and acne medications. These require additional paperwork, individualized appeal letters and at times phone calls with the insurance company to request appeal of denials. Based on this additional time, a fee will be charged for all completed. prior authorizations.
