No, we do not accept insurance, we are a cash pay clinic. Our practice is not contracted with any insurance companies.
Many of our services are not covered by insurance or there are high copays or deductibles. By not accepting insurance we are able to keep the costs down and provided services for everyone. For example, traditional lab values state testosterone is normal between 300-900. This is a huge range and most men feel awful way before they go below 300. But typically insurance will not cover testosterone replacement therapy unless a man has a level below 300. A similar situation occurs with women’s hormones as well as some weight loss options.
Being a cash pay clinic allows our provider to spend the necessary time with each patient. We will also respond to your calls or messages in a timely fashion. We know your time is valuable and treat you as such. Also, you will know your out-of-pocket expenses up front and can plan accordingly with no surprise costs.
Our practice is able to charge services on your HSA card. It is the patient’s responsibility to ensure that the services are covered under their plan as every plan is different.
Yes, hormone pellets are one option. Unlike other providers who simply place pellets in everyone, our model emphasizes hormone optimization in the form that is best for each patient. We use clinical judgement as well as our training and experience in hormone optimization to help you decide what will work best for you. Our provider has performed over 1,000 pellet procedures so you can feel comfortable if pellet placement is right for you.
