A deductible is the amount you pay for health care services before your health insurance begins to pay. This starts over at the beginning of your benefit period which is usually at the beginning of the year.

Coinsurance is your share of the costs of a health care service. It’s usually figured as a percentage of the amount the insurance company allows to be charged for services. You start paying coinsurance after you’ve paid your plan’s deductible.

A copay is a fixed amount you pay for a health care service at the time the service is rendered. The amount can vary by the type of service. Physical Therapy services sometimes have a dedicated copay, or follow the Specialist copay.

Payment is due at the time of service. For your convenience we accept cash, check, all major credit cards, flexible spending accounts, as well as Care Credit.
