Charges for services provided by TEAMCare Behavioral Health, LLC (“the Clinic”) cover the following components: Intake interview, psychiatric evaluation, nursing services, psychotherapy, medication management and/or psychological testing. We require payment of the client’s copay or deductible amount, if applicable, on the date of your service. If you are unable to pay this amount in full on the day of service, a $10.00 service charge will be added to the client’s account and an invoice will be mailed to you for the full amount due. Payment on this invoice is due within 15 days of the date of service.
We will submit a claim to the client’s insurance carrier within one week of receiving complete billing information. The client will be notified by his/her insurance company when final action (payment, denial, etc.) for the claim has been processed. If any additional funds are owed, you will be invoiced for the full remaining balance due. Payment in full is due within 15 days of the date printed on the invoice. A service charge of $35.00 will be added to the client’s account for any returned checks due to non-sufficient funds and/or stop payment. In the event that a past due account is submitted to a collection agency, you agree to reimburse us the fees of any collection agency, which may be based on a percentage at a maximum of 35% of the debt, and all costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, we incur in such collection efforts.
We file the insurance claim for the client as a courtesy for the client; however, our relationship is with the client, not the insurance company. It is the client’s responsibility, or in the case of a minor it is the parent/guardian’s responsibility, to be knowledgeable regarding the insurance coverage and benefits. We expect full cooperation from the client and responsible party in obtaining payment from the insurance company. If difficulties arise that go unresolved for 60 days, the balance on the claim, with certain exceptions, will become your responsibility to pay in full. An invoice will be mailed to you, and payment will be due within 15 days of the date printed on the invoice.
