I used my insurance, why did I get a bill from Healthcare Today?
Some insurance plans may have a deductible. If you have not yet met your deductible for the year, you may receive a bill from us. It can take insurances several months to process a claim. In this instance, you may receive a bill from us several months after the date of service, if you had not yet met your deductible at the time of service. All insurance plans are different and have different contracted rates for our services. These rates are determined by your insurance company, not Healthcare Today.
If you have a large deductible with your insurance carrier, it may be more cost-efficient for you to choose the self-pay cash price. You may use your FSA/HSA account to pay the self-pay cash price if you choose.
