 Radiation therapy is expensive - especially during the initial treatment
planning and set-up procedures. Consultation services, treatment devices,
and daily treatment add further expense. Your insurance will probably cover
a large percentage of the cost, ranging from 70% to 100%. We will bill your
insurance company and/or Medicare for you. Insurance payments that are
mailed directly to you should be brought into our office for credit to your
account. In order to bill any supplemental insurance carrier, we will need a
copy of the primary explanation of benefits. We are participating with
Medicare (which means we accept Medicare assignments).You will receive a monthly bill. We ask that you pay 20% of each month's charges while your insurance claim is being processed. If necessary, we will be happy to arrange a convenient payment plan for you.
