Listed below are the approved types of Insurances and any requirements needed:

 

Health plans

  • Blue Cross Blue Shield plans - Referrals are not needed with the basic plans, however, if you have a Deductible Plan, you will be responsible to pay the amount at the time of your visit or a flat fee.  Flat fees are consistent with new patient and existing patient fees who do not have insurance.

  • Aetna - You will need to check your card to see if a referral is required. If you do require a referral, you will need to get in contact with your Primary Care Physician to obtain this referral number. If you do not require a referral number, you can simply call to make an appointment.

  • Fidelis - We do accept Fidelis, however, insurance rules requires a pre-authorization for Diabetic Shoes and/or Orthotics.
