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.

Best medical experience I've had since childhood. Dr. Mason showed sincere interest. He was honest regarding his background and experience in this field which motivated trust. Explained the goals of the clinic. He asked questions that encouraged a desire to communicate because of his obvious sincere concern. I did not feel like a piece of cattle being rushed through a routine once over. He thoroughly explained my condition to my husband and myself using my test results, diagrams and drawings. I left with a better understanding of my disorder than I've had in 38 years. He reminded me of the doctors of times past that took time with their patients. Made me aware of changes to be alert to. My husband had a better understanding of the possible dangers and challenges that I could face. Thank you Doctor.

I was impressed that he had prepared for the appointment by going over my medical history and came into the room ready to talk to me about it without first logging into the computer to refresh his memory.
