Photo of Front and Back of Secondary Insurance Card

 

Statesboro Psychiatric Associates (SPA) does not participate with Medicare (or its commercial products), Tricare or Medicaid. I understand that if covered by any of these entities that I must sign a waiver in order to receive treatment at SPA. I understand that the waiver states that I may not file claims with Medicare, Tricare or Medicaid for services rendered by SPA, and that I am fully responsible for payment of these services. I also understand that neither I nor SPA will file with insurance that is secondary to Medicare, and that by signing the waiver I am fully responsible for office visits.

I understand that it is my responsibility to alert Statesboro Psychiatric Associates to any and all changes in my insurance coverage, and that failure to provide these updates in a timely fashion may result in denial of claims by my new insurance company, and that I will be fully responsible for payment of these services.

I understand that unpaid balances are cause for dismissal from the practice, and that in the event that my account is forwarded to an outside agency for collection, a charge of 33% will be added to the outstanding balance to cover this cost.

Patient Agreement/Office Policies

To Our Patients:
Welcome to Statesboro Psychiatric Associates! Our dedicated mental health practitioners and staff are committed to providing the highest quality care to each and every patient. Set forth below is our Patient Agreement, which establishes our office policies. Please read and sign, contacting us with any questions you may have.

Appointments: What to Expect

Evaluation: The purpose of the initial evaluation is to obtain a detailed history for an accurate assessment. At times, your provider may need to obtain additional information from other health care professionals and, in the case of minors, from teachers before generating a diagnosis and/or recommendations.

Upon the conclusion of the evaluation, your provider will discuss his/her assessment and impressions with you, and make recommendations regarding the need for follow-up, medications and/or psychotherapy. Often psychotherapy is a helpful adjunct to medication or an effective stand-alone treatment.

Follow Up: Based on the evaluation, your provider will have our staff schedule follow-up visits for you. These visits may be more frequent during the initial phase of treatment. If medication is prescribed, your doctor will monitor your response to the medication, and monitor for side effects during follow-up visits.

Who Should Come: In order to ensure that you receive optimal care, we kindly ask that you do not bring friends or family members to your appointments unless their presence is requested. Please note that we cannot have children in our waiting area without the supervision of a parent, guardian or caretaker.

Cancellation Policy/Lateness: In order to ensure that all patients receive the time and attention they deserve, we do not double-book appointments. We reserve your appointment time specifically for you, and you alone. For this reason, our office charges for cancellations without 24-hour notice (one business day). Similarly, if you arrive late for your appointment, and need to be rescheduled, you will be assigned the cancellation fee. The fees are as follows:

  • $50 for established patient MD/PA office visits
  • Full charge for weekly and biweekly psychotherapy appointments of $130
  • Patients who miss their initial, confirmed appointment cannot be rescheduled

 

One Appointment Per Day: Most insurance companies do not reimburse for two mental health visits at different offices on the same day. To avoid being charged for your appointment, please make sure that if you have an appointment at our office that you do not have an appointment with another office on the same day.

Emergencies and Urgent Consultations

For your benefit, a covering provider will be available for important issues after office hours via phone. The on-call provider can be reached by calling 912-531-4886. This number is also listed on our office voicemail message. For emergencies of an immediate nature, please call 911 or go directly to the emergency room at the nearest hospital.

Page 4/20

Prescriptions/Medications

Medication Changes: Our office does not routinely change/modify prescriptions over the phone. Please schedule an appointment if a medication change is needed.

Refills: To ensure that you have your medications in a timely fashion, please call your pharmacy at least 2 business days before it is needed. For these standard refills, please do not call the office. Please note, if you need a medication refill, but have missed and are overdue for an appointment, you will most likely need to be seen before a refill request can be approved.

  • Controlled Substances/Stimulants: Can now be requested by your pharmacy and e-prescribed. Please call your pharmacy for refills at least 2 business days before needed.

Weekend/After-Hour Refills: Please plan ahead to avoid running out of medications over the weekend or after hours. When necessary, emergency weekend prescriptions are given for no more than 7 days of medication. For controlled substance refills after hours, no more than a 5-day supply will be refilled by the on-call provider to cover you until you are able to contact your treating provider.

Mail-Order Prescriptions: We are glad to help you with your mail-order prescription services. Please note, as with other medication refills, we will only be able to provide these 90-day prescriptions if you are current with your appointments.

Side Effects: Always discuss any changes or side effects from medications with your doctor. If problems occur with a medication, please contact our office.

Medical Forms

All medical forms, to include school forms, will be completed by your provider during your visit. Please notify your provider at the beginning of each session if you have forms to be filled out.

  • Disability Forms: For disabilities due to physical injuries, please ask your primary care physician to complete your paperwork. If the disability is based on a mental health issue, for clinical/therapeutic reasons our providers do not complete these forms, but will refer you to an outside provider who specializes in disability issues.

Insurance Disclosure Authorization

I, authorize staff of Statesboro Psychiatric Associates (SPA) to exchange information with: .

  • The information described below that pertains to my treatment or treatment of my child/ward as necessary. The purpose of disclosure is to permit SPA and my insurer to conduct billing and payment activities in connection with treatment by SPA.
  • The specific information I authorize to be disclosed is information regarding my (or my child's/ward's) diagnosis, presence/participation in treatment, psychiatric evaluation, assessment/evaluation report, treatment recommendations, treatment plan, progress notes, treatment progress, continuing care plan, discharge/transfer summaries, physician orders, lab results, physical exam, billing statements, and scheduling, confirming and cancelling appointments.
  • I understand that I may revoke this authorization by providing written notification to SPA at any time except to the extent that action has been taken in reliance on it.
  • I understand that unless I have specifically requested in writing that the disclosure be made in a specific format, SPA reserves the right to disclose information in any manner that they deem appropriate and consistent with applicable law including, but not limited to, verbally, in paper format, fax or computer technology.
  • I understand that if I refuse to sign this authorization, the consequences will be that no information will be disclosed to my insurer. In such event, SPA will not be able to bill my insurer for treatment and I will be responsible for payment for services in full at SPA standard rates.
  • Though unlikely, there is always the potential that the disclosed information will be predisposed by the authorized entities and no longer protected by HIPAA Privacy Rules. SPA is not responsible for the conduct of those entities.

By signing below, you state that you have read and agree to this Insurance Disclosure Authorization in its entirety.
