Verifying Your Coverage
Not sure if your plan is in-network? Our front desk team can help. Simply call us at 318-797-5848 and have your insurance card ready. We'll verify your participation status and answer any questions about what your plan covers for pain management services.
Your insurance card is required at every appointment. If your insurance changes for any reason, please notify our office as soon as possible — ideally before your next scheduled visit.
Referrals and Prior Authorizations
Some insurance plans require a referral from your primary care physician or a prior authorization before you can be seen by a specialist. It is your responsibility to obtain any required referral or authorization before your appointment. If your plan requires one and you arrive without it, your appointment may need to be rescheduled. If you're unsure whether your plan requires a referral, contact your insurance company or call our office and we'll help you find out.
MEDICAID
Our office can accept Medicaid only when it is secondary to another insurance payer. Patients who transition to Medicaid as their sole insurance payer will need to contact their Medicaid representative to locate a provider who accepts Medicaid as primary insurance. If your insurance situation changes, please contact our office as soon as possible so we can discuss next steps.
Workers' Compensation
If your care is related to a workplace injury, please provide complete workers' compensation information at or before your first visit — including the insurance company name and address, your claim number, the date of injury, and a contact name and phone number. Your individual health insurance information will also be collected in the event your workers' compensation claim is denied.
Auto and Personal Injury Claims
For care related to an auto accident or personal injury claim, please bring your complete claim information to your first appointment, including the mailing address, claim number, contact name, and phone number. Your individual health plan information will also be obtained as a backup in the event your claim is denied.
