Insurance Information

In addition to working with most insurance, we take most credit cards and financing is also available. Care Credit is specially for medical services. See if you qualify at http://www.carecredit.com . Insurance coverage varies considerably for individuals, but our services can be covered or partially covered in many cases. What we have learned is that patients who agressively seek coverage by their carriers are often rewarded with partial or (in most cases) full coverage for many of our services. Genesis will assist whenever we are needed, however we maintain that all payments are the patients responsibility. The patient who persues their insurance to guarrentee coverage learns to be more independant about their lives and their care, and minimize any out of pocket expenses that might other wise occur due to deductables and/or co-pays. You paid for your insurance, why shouldn’t you get the services you paid for?
