Payment and Collection Policy

 
  Other clinics throughout the United States typically expect payment for all in-office provided medical services to be made at the time services are given.  Mowery Clinic (except for insurance required time of service office co-pays) usually allows payment to be deferred until you receive your first statement.  Payment for the full amount of your account balance is due and payable upon receipt of your statement.  We realize that a person's current financial situation may sometimes not allow for their entire balance to be paid at one time.  In such circumstances, appropriate alternative payment arrangements may be made by contacting the staff in our Business Office.  Accounts will be considered delinquent if not paid within thirty (30) days of a statement or if any arranged payment terms with our Business Office staff are not honored. Interest, at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum, will be charged on all account balances that are over 120 days old.  The Clinic accepts Discover, VISA and MasterCard.  The Clinic retains the right to request payment at the time care is provided for certain elective services and when an account is delinquent or has previously been in a non-current status.  Delinquent accounts may be referred to an outside agency for collection.
