Stat Anesthesia Specialists, Ltd. accepts assignment from most insurance companies. Stat’s Patient Accounts staff will obtain pre-authorization, verify benefits and bill medical insurance directly for those patients with medical health insurance coverage. (Please note that the fees for anesthesia services are separate from those of the doctor or the facility.) The estimated payment for services after your insurance makes payment may be collected on the date of service. PLEASE UNDERSTAND that we bill medical insurance as a courtesy to our patients. We do not have a contract with your insurance company, only you do. We are not responsible for how your insurance company handles its claims or for what benefits they pay on a claim. We can only assist you in estimating your portion of the cost of anesthesia services.
For those patients without medical health insurance coverage, or if the anesthesia is for a procedure that is not a covered service as determined by your medical insurance policy, payment is due on or before the date of service. We accept personal checks, money orders, cashier's checks, Mastercard, Visa, American Express and Discover. Alternatively, we offer competitive financing through Care Credit www.carecredit.com and Surgery Loans www.surgeryloans.com. (Please note both Care Credit and Surgery Loans are independent financing companies and certain terms and conditions apply.)
Dental Services
Anesthesia services are a considered a medical service, and therefore are not covered by Dental Insurance plans, which provide benefits for dental services only. Anesthesia services for dental procedures are covered by medical insurance under limited circumstances such as traumatic injury (such as an accidental injury), fully or partial bony impacted wisdom teeth extraction, in some pediatric cases, and other special circumstances.
