How to Talk to Your Insurance

Help You Verify Your Own Insurance to Submit Your Own Claims

Dr. Clark does not bill insurance. She will provide you with a fee slip that will have all the necessary codes for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Payment is due, in full, at time of service.

Below are some helpful hints to help you determine your insurance benefits.

Please call and verify your benefits before your first visit.

When you call your insurance company to verify your Naturopathic benefits, there are specific questions to ask. For your convenience you can have this form handy to write the information next to each question and bring it in for your first appointment.

When you call, make sure you speak with and get the name of a customer service representative, you will not get the specific information you need from the automated service.
