FIRST VISIT
We take the time to get to know you. For your first visit with Integrative Medical Associates please set aside 90 minutes to 2 hours. During this time, we talk with you at length about your medical history, lifestyle and health concerns. Then we'll perform a general exam and determine if you need any diagnostic tests. The goal of our first meeting is to get a bigger view of all aspects of your life. Based on our conversations and your physical exam, we'll make recommendations that are compatible with you, your needs and beliefs. For some patients, the recommendations may include nutraceutical/botanicals therapies. For others it maybe a lifestyle change, diagnostic testing or conventional medical therapeutics. Before Your Visit We have our new patient forms online. You can print them and fill out the forms at home at your convenience. When you come in to see us please bring the following items:
Insurance While integrative medicine is growing in popularity among healthcare consumers, many insurance companies do not provide coverage for these services. At this time due to insurance limitations, the consultation will remain on a fee for service basis. We do however offer a courtesy insurance billing. We will submit your visit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement, depending on your insurance guidelines. Medicare does not cover integrative medicine. Fees As most insurances do not currently provide coverage for these services, all fees are due at the time of service. We accept cash, check, Visa and Mastercard. Cancellation Policy As we try to give our patients sufficient time with the doctor, we set aside an hour for each of our new patients. We ask our patients to give us a 24 hour notice if they need to cancel or reschedule. If you are not able to give a 24 hour notice, there will be a fee incurred. |
