Insurance
If you have questions about what is and is not covered under your health care policy, please consult your health care policy provider. If you have insurance, the Patient Financial Services office will bill your insurance carrier if complete information was provided at the time of registration. Though we try and assist our patients on coverage questions, it is your responsibility to know what is covered under your policy.
Once your insurer processes your claim, we will file any secondary insurances provided to us. If you have questions about your account, please contact our Patient Financial Services at 650-940-7220, Monday - Friday, from 7:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Patient Balances
If a balance remains after all insurances have processed your claim, you will receive a billing statement. You may also receive a billing statement from us if your insurance does not pay your claim. Patient balances are due upon receipt of your billing statement. Delinquent accounts may be referred to outside collection agencies if payment in full or mutually agreed upon payment arrangements are not obtained in a timely manner.
