Western Carolina Medical Associates
Insurance & Payment Information
Fees for office visits are based on the time spent, as well as the complexity of the medical problem. Payment is expected at the time of your visit. We accept cash, check, VISA or Mastercard. Our office files health insurance claims as a courtesy to you. On your initial visit, you will be asked to complete the appropriate insurance forms and present a copy of your insurance card(s).
We accept Medicare assignment and participate with a number of managed care programs. It is your responsibility to notify the front desk staff if your insurance program requires prior approval for treatment. Western Carolina Medical Associates will not be responsible for claims that are unpaid because the insurance program was not notified. We will assist you in contacting the insurance program so that your claim will be covered. Carolina Access Medicaid patients must present their card with each visit, and the plan must list WCMA as a PCP. Claims not paid within 60 days of filing become the patient’s responsibility.
