The No Surprises Act (NSA) is federal legislation that went into effect on January 1, 2022. It protects patients from unexpected medical bills and promotes transparency in healthcare costs.

Good Faith Estimates

• If you are uninsured or choose not to use insurance, we will provide you with a written Good Faith Estimate (GFE) of expected charges before services begin

• Your GFE will include expected charges for your initial appointment and any recurring services

• You'll receive this estimate upon scheduling or upon request

Transparency in Billing

• We commit to clear information about our fees before treatment begins

• Our billing practices comply with all NSA requirements

• We will inform you about any changes to your treatment plan that may affect costs

Your Rights

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of costs

• You can initiate a dispute process if your bill exceeds your GFE by $400 or more

• You can request an updated GFE at any time

Insurance Information

• If you're using insurance, we will verify your benefits and explain any potential out-of-network costs

• We will help you understand your financial responsibility based on your specific insurance plan
