FINANCIAL POLICY
1. The fee for the initial cosmetic consultation is $100.00, payable at the time of service. This fee includes a second consultation within 60 days, if needed. The fee for the initial insurance consultation ranges between $100.00 - $250.00 depending on length and focus of visit. 2. An estimate of the surgical fee will be provided at the time of consultation. This estimate does not include expenses which the patient may incur for a "History and Physical" examination, blood tests, and prescriptions. A 10% deposit is required when the surgery date is scheduled.
3. Final payment for all cosmetic surgeries must be made at least three (3) weeks prior to the scheduled surgery
date. Fees are fully refundable for cancellations made no later than three (3) weeks prior to the date of
surgery. A 50% refund will be made for surgeries which are cancelled 14-20 days prior to surgery. There will be
no refunds for cancellations within 13 days of the scheduled surgery. A surgery which has been rescheduled and
subsequently cancelled again is subject to no greater than a 50% refund.
4. The patient is solely responsible for the entire fee, regardless of the source of payment. In the case of insurance-covered procedures, the patient is responsible for any co-payments and/or deductibles. On rare occasions a surgery may include a procedure, which is covered by insurance and one, which is not. In these cases, there may be two consultation and two anesthesia charges. If the insurance company pays these, the patient will be responsible for any co-payments. 5. All post-operative visits relating to the original procedure are included in the surgical fee for up to one (1) year. Consultations for unrelated procedures will be billed separately. 6. There will be a reduced surgeon's fee assessed for cosmetic re-operations involving minor revisions, which are performed within twelve (12) months of the original date of surgery. The patient, however, is fully responsible
for the operating room facility fee, anesthesia fee, and all supplies…minimum fee = $1650.00.
***Initials__________***
7. There will be a $30.00 fee for any check returned to the practice unpaid. 8. Exceptions to this policy will be considered on a case by case basis and will be at the sole discretion of the 9. There will be a $50.00 fee billed to new patients for missed consultation appointments without prior 48 hours
