CFI Prosthetics Orthotics understands the tremendous burden
that can be created by healthcare expenses. We will make every
attempt to try to ease that burden. We ask that our patients
understand the complex and costly process that is involved
in fabricating customized prosthetic and orthotic devices.
We will be happy to assist you in working out a payment plan,
helping to file insurance, or discussing possible alternative
avenues of funding. However, we cannot begin fabrication of
a device until insurance verification is completed or other
financial arrangements are made.
Patients covered by a private insurance company are asked
to pay their co-payment and the deductible in advance. Patients
with two insurance companies are not required to make a down
payment; however, the deductible amount may be required.
It is our policy, in the majority of cases, to accept direct
Medicare assignments.
In those cases in which we cannot accept assignment, we ask
to have 1/2 paid in advance and 1/2 upon delivery of the finished
device. If special arrangements are needed, we will attempt
to work out a plan for you before work is begun on the prosthesis
or orthosis.
Payment is not required for verifiable worker's compensation
recipients.
Veterans must present appropriate authorization from the
Veterans Health Administration.
