Payment

Are you tired of not getting a straight answer when asking about medical costs?

Are you annoyed by the fact that you can “shop around” for the best value for other services but the prices for health care services are often elusive? Wellness Matters is committed to transparency and fair pricing for services. Wellness Matters caters to busy people who value privacy, recognizing that some people may prefer not to have their insurance companies notified when they are receiving services.

Wellness Matters recognizes that many people with commercial insurance have high deductibles. Unfortunately, our contracts with these companies prohibit discounting patient’s out-of-pocket expenses. If you anticipate difficulty in paying your bill due to a high deductible, Wellness Matters has several payment plan options available.

Debit/Credit Card Information Required

Wellness Matters LLC accepts cash and all major debit/credit cards for co-pays and services. Our HIPPA-compliant health record system securely stores card information for convenient electronic billing. Because both public and private insurance plans include a client co-pay or co-insurance responsibility, all clients are required to enter debit/credit card information for electronic billing purposes.

Self-Pay Clients

Since there are significant administrative savings to Wellness Matters LLC if we don’t have to bill your insurance company, we pass along the cost savings to you if you have insurance  but choose not to use it. Self-pay clients are charged the same day of service
