Your rights and protections against surprise medical bills

Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice. Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice. Baylor Scott & White Health does not manage the insurances accepted for this doctor. Please contact the office directly to confirm coverage.

I have already told several people in my family about my visit with Rachel. She was awesome. She took the time to help me understand a trail study currently going on at Duke. And told me about some new technology that is happening in Knee/Partial Knee replacement. We discussed family history and she recommended with my parents longevity that we work to keep my knees as healthy as possible to see what happens with the knee cartilage replacement trials. Love her approach to health.

Rachel Farmer, today especially, is an exceptional medical resource for me, who would be the same for others, regardless of where her services are accessible. Her help always embraces the truth with great caring for the patient. Because she is kind and shares wisdom, her patient is inspired to trust her ...repeatedly! An actual, true care provider, she is indeed.
