Paying For Our Services
Insurance
We accept most major insurance plans, including many Medicaid-managed care plans. We are out-of-network with a few plans but we are often able to obtain authorization for in-network benefits through a request for a gap exception or a single case agreement. We also offer discounts and payment plans for self-pay clients.
If you are eligible for Medicaid, you can apply through the New York State Marketplace. Many New Yorkers who do not normally qualify for Medicaid are eligible during pregnancy, because the income limit is higher and the unborn child counts as a dependent. You may be able to use prenatal Medicaid even if you are already enrolled in a commercial insurance plan.
We require that all clients obtain a Verification of Benefits (VOB) statement through our billing service, Scribe Align. Scribe Align will contact your insurance, review your plan benefits, determine your out-of-pocket costs and provide you with information.
