How does your practice work with insurance?
Patients with any insurance can enroll in the practice, but your insurance plan is between you and your insurance company. Dr. Lewis does not contract with any insurance plans, and is therefore considered an "out of network provider."
After you pay for services provided, Mountain View will give you a form you will then mail to your insurance. Your insurance company then determines your reimbursement based on the terms of your plan. You will continue to give your insurance information to the lab, specialist office, or hospital for services outside of Mountain View.
Certain HMO’s usually require you to have an “in network provider” for referrals outside of Mountain View to be covered. Be sure and check your plan’s details regarding their practices, as this responsibility now falls to you. The annual fee itself is not covered by any insurance or Medicare.
