PATIENT?S BILL OF RIGHTS STATEMENT AND TREATMENT CONTRACT

Patients at Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics have certain rights and responsibilities. We recognize that a respectful relationship between the healthcare provider and the patient is the foundation of proper medical care.

PATIENTS HAVE THE RIGHT TO:

- Receive humane care and treatment with respect and consideration

- Confidentiality of your health records

- Be informed of and to exercise the option to refuse participation in any research aspect of your care without compromising access to medical care and treatment

- Receive accurate information regarding diagnosis, treatment, risks involved, and prognosis of illness or health related condition

- Ask about reasonable alternatives to care

- A second professional opinion regarding one?s health care and treatment

- Participate actively in decision regarding ones treatment

- Accessible information regarding the scope and availability of services

- Be informed about any legal reporting requirements regarding any aspect of screening or care

PATIENTS HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY TO:

- Provide complete information about one?s illness or problem to enable proper evaluation and treatment

- Ask questions so that an understanding of the condition or problem is ensured

- Show respect to health personnel and other patients

- Reschedule/cancel an appointment so that another person may be given that time slot

- Pay bills and/or file health claims in a timely manner

- Use prescription and medical devices for oneself only

- Inform the provider if one?s condition worsens or an unexpected reaction occurs from a medication

MISSED APPOINTMENT FEES

To ensure the above, patients must call the clinic at least 24 hours in advance in order to cancel an appointment. Failure to call the office within 24 hours of canceling or missing an appointment will result in a missed appointment fee.

To ensure adequate time spent with patients, Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics accepts patients by appointments only. Patients who come to the clinic on a walk-in basis may have to wait a longer period of time to see the provider. Consequently, there is no guarantee that walk-in patients may be seen unless there is a cancellation.

Patients will be charged a fee in the amount of $25.00 for failure to keep office visits and $50.00 for procedure visits scheduled at an hour or more of the providers time without 24-hour notice. Three missed appointments without 24-hour notice may result in dismissal as a patient.

RESCHEDULING APPOINTMENTS

Patients may call the office up to 24 hours before the scheduled time to reschedule an appointment. If a patient calls to reschedule an appointment that is scheduled within the next 24 hours, it will be considered a missed appointment. Additionally, we cannot reschedule an appointment that has already been rescheduled. For this instance, it will be considered a missed appointment as well.

MEDICATION REFILLS

Standards of Care set forth by medical certifying bodies in conjunction with clinic procedures dictate how often patients should be seen between medical visits and issuance of medication refills. Some medications and conditions require patients to be seen in the clinic before refills are made ? usually every three months for most chronic conditions. The office routinely checks and verifies prior patient prescriptions through the Texas Prescription Authority, the patient's pharmacy and patient's insurance company.

CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE MEDICATIONS

Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics does not provide ongoing pain management and psychiatric services. No refills of certain medications for the above conditions are given on a routine basis. Patients are referred to a specialist at the discretion of the care provider when the above medications are required for long-term treatment. Additionally, all patients requesting controlled substance medications, will be subject to monitoring via the Prescription Access in Texas online database.

UNINSURED HOSPITAL ADMISSIONS

SELF-PAY patients will be provided outpatient care only. No providers from Pride Family Medicine will admit self-pay patients in any hospital. Self-pay patients who are admitted in a hospital will be assigned to an admitting physician per the hospital?s program for non-insured patients.

MID-LEVEL PROVIDERS

Pride Family Medicine uses Nurse Practitioners for the care and treatment of medical patients. All Nurse Practitioners are licensed with the state of Texas and operate under the supervision of Dr. Michael Martin, MD. A Nurse Practitioner is not a medical doctor, but is a registered nurse who has completed advanced nursing education (generally a master's degree or doctoral degree) and training and can diagnose, treat and monitor common acute and chronic diseases as well as provide health maintenance care. In addition, NPs can treat minor lacerations and other minor injuries. Pride patients will always be scheduled with a Nurse Practitioner, and patients have the right to request to been seen by an MD at another facility.

By typing my name below, I am attesting that I have read, understand and agree to the above statements. Furthermore, I had a chance to ask questions from a representative at Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics and those questions were adequately answered to my satisfaction.

PAYMENT POLICY

Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics appreciates the confidence you have shown us in choosing us to provide for your health and skincare needs. The services you have elected constitute a financial responsibility on your part that obligates you to ensure payment in full of our fees. Please keep in mind that medical insurance generally only covers medical visits and rarely Aesthetics procedures. Your medical insurance is a contract between you and your insurance company. As a courtesy we will verify your coverage and bill your insurance carrier on your behalf. However, you are ultimately responsible for full payment of your bill and our office cannot guarantee that your carrier will pay your claim.

You are responsible for payment of any deductible and co-payment/co-insurance as determined by your contract with your insurance carrier. Payment is due at the time service is rendered. This includes co-pays. Many insurance companies have additional stipulations that may affect your coverage. You are responsible for any amounts not covered by your insurer. If your insurance carrier denies any part of your claim, you will be responsible for your balance in full. Our office will not enter into a dispute with the insurance carrier over a claim, although we will be happy to assist wherever possible. If an insurance payment is mistakenly sent to the patient, instead of the office for service rendered, the patient is expected to provide payment with 10 days of receipt along with the Explanation of Medical Benefit statement provided by your insurance.

LATE CANCELLATION AND NO SHOW POLICY:

Patients must call the clinic at least 24 hours in advance in order to cancel an appointment or reschedule to a later date. Failure to call the office within 24 hours of canceling/rescheduling or missing an appointment will result in a missed appointment fee. Patients will be charged a fee in the amount of $25.00 for failure to keep medical office visits and consultations and $50 for procedure visits without 24-hour notice.

PAYMENT METHODS:

Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics accept the following payment methods: cash, credit card, debit card, Health-Savings account (HSA) cards and CareCredit. In addition, Pride Aesthetics offers in-house financing for some multiple-treatment skincare packages. We do not accept personal checks.

I have read the above policies regarding my financial responsibilities to Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics for providing a medical and/or medical spa service to me. If I do not have health insurance or am having an Aesthetics procedure, I agree to pay the practice the full and entire amount of treatment given to me at each visit. I authorize my insurer to pay any benefits directly to Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics, and that I will pay the full and entire amount of any bill incurred by me and if applicable any amount due after payment has been made by my insurance carrier.

I agree to pay any costs incurred by Pride Family Medicine and Aesthetics in collecting any amount due including, without limitations collection agency fees and attorney?s fees. I understand that any outstanding balance not paid within 90 days of my office visit date, may be subject to a late fee.
