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.

Dr Carlin was knowledgeable about my health history as soon as he walked into the patient room I was in. He went over every health concern, even drawing a basic picture of a heart and lungs to give me a vision of what he was explaining to me. He explained why I need certain tests and possible outcomes. He asked for my input and if I had any questions. He is very kind and caring and very honest. I trust him because of it.

As always Dr Carlin was prompt and pleasant. He listened to my current struggle with breathing and quickly recommended an upgrade to my COPD medication. The script was ready for me by the next day. He shared the result of my latest CT scan and was pleased to see no changes from the previous scan. He arranged a follow up for December. Very pleased with the visit.
