Office Policies
|
Payments
|
Our payment policy is cash, check or bankcard at the time of service, with the exception of Premera/Blue Cross if your contract provides the coverage for office visits.
|
Insurance
|
Each patient should check with his/her insurance carrier to determine eligibility and to clarify insurance coverage for each of the practitioners you see. Most private insurance companies pay only a portion of the medical charges, and some will not cover services of a naturopath or dietitian.
Except for Premera/Blue Cross/Blue Shield patients with coverage for the service provided, you will be expected to make payment on the day of service and receive reimbursement directly from your insurance company. Some secondary insurances are paying when you bill. Each one is different, so be sure to check with your own company.
If Medicare or D.S.H.S. is your primary insurance, you will need to sign a private contract with Dr. Corell. The contract states that you understand Dr. Corell has opted out of the Medicare and D.S.H.S. programs. This means we cannot bill Medicare or D.S.H.S., nor can you, for the services rendered from this office.

Appointments
|
In order to serve you better and keep the cost of medical care down, we have developed an efficient appointment system. However, our cost of providing care increases greatly when people fail to keep scheduled appointments or cancel at the last minute. We make every effort to respect the time reserved for the people we serve and ask for the same courtesy in return. Please help us control our costs by being on time for your appointment or giving us 48 hours notice if there is a need to cancel, or you will be charged the full price of the appointment you missed, and your insurance will not cover this fee.

Narcotics Prescriptions Picked Up or Mailed
|
If you need to pick up a written prescription for narcotics, you may do so. If you need to send a family member or friend, please call us with their name. We will ask for their ID when they come to pick it up. If you request that we send it, we will do so by certified mail, and you will be charged the $9.62 fee for certified mail.
|
Supplements
|
For our patients’ convenience, we do sell nutritional supplements and homeopathics, which are recommended by our healthcare providers. If you chose to purchase from us, you need to be aware of our no return policy on opened and used products. We will, however, refund on unopened products if returned within 30 days of purchase date.
|
Emergencies
|
Dr. Corell does not work with hospitalized patients but would be happy to assist you with specialty consultation. We may not be available for consultation after hours. In the event of an emergency, please utilize Deaconess or the emergency facility of your choice.
