Our office
currently participates in more than 95% of the insurance plans in South Texas,
with periodic plan updates. Click here for the complete
list of currently accepted insurance companies. Many health insurance companies often change names. Please inform
us if we are currently not a provider with your insurance company.
The office participates
with most major insurance carriers in South Texas and will work with your primary
care physician’s office to obtain appropriate
referral authorization(s) if necessary. However, it is the individual patient’s
responsibility to insure that proper pre-authorization is achieved prior to your
office visit. If you have an HMO, PPO, or related insurance plan, and are unsure
if pre-authorization is necessary, contact your individual insurance carrier
and/or your primary care physician’s office, prior to your office visit.
Once
you have determined our office participates with your individual or group health
insurance plan, please call the office for a new patient appointment. As a convenience
to our prospective new patients, you may download a Patient Information form
by clicking here {provide link}. This will help facilitate the registration process
when you arrive for your appointment. Please have your insurance card with you
and a pictured ID-preferably, a driver’s license.
DO NOT use the ‘Contact Us’ form/link
for registration as a new patient. You must call the office personally to make
any appointment(s) with Dr. Tompkins!
If you
would like our office to file for insurance benefits, provide us with a copy
of your current insurance card/information at or before your appointment.
Please
be prepared to pay deductibles and/or co-payments at the time of your visit.
We accept Medicare assignments and are flexible with "out-of-network" participants.
For your
convenience, we accept personal checks, MasterCard, Visa, Discover and American
Express. If necessary, a flexible payment plan can also be arranged with prior
notice.
Please DO NOT use
the ‘Contact Us’ form/link
for any questions you may have regarding billing or insurance. Call the office
at 210-341-2202, for any information
regarding insurance and/or billing.
We look forward to seeing
you in our practice and taking care of you and your family’s foot and ankle
health care.
