What is included in a routine physical?
Annual physical exams are your best assurance that you are up-to-date on age appropriate screening tests and procedures. During a routine physical, your doctor will conduct routine health screening tests and provide recommendations for preventive care based on your age and risk factors. A routine physical provides an opportunity to pick up important physical findings for which you may have no symptoms.
I came in for a routine physical and was also charged for an office visit. Why?
Routine physicals are meant to cover only your preventive care and routine health screenings. However, if during your appointment, you request treatment for a new symptom or complaint outside the scope of your preventive care (e.g. injury, illness, or condition), or receive treatment for an abnormal finding discovered during your physical (e.g. abnormal urinalysis, EKG), an office visit will be also be billed. This is standard billing procedure for healthcare providers.
Please note that most insurances waive your copay for routine physicals. If an office visit is added, your copay will apply. We recommend that you keep this in mind for your appointment and contact your insurance company with any questions.
What is your no show policy?
We require 24-hour notice for any appointment cancellation. A $25 no-show fee will apply if you miss your appointment without providing 24-hour notice.
