We accept Medicaid! We are in network with:
These cover 100% of your care with no deductible and no co-pays.
Coverage for ultrasounds, labs, and other testing is typically covered, but please check with your individual plan for any limitations to these services.
We are unable to accept Medicare at this time.
We accept most major insurers in MA! If you have commercial insurance, we will collect your insurance information and submit that to our billing service who will prepare an MBV (maternity benefits verification) letter for you, detailing what your insurance covers and what your anticipated out-of-pocket expenses will be.
We are in-network with following commercial insurance companies (this includes MCO and ACO plans available on the insurance marketplace):
FINANCIAL POLICIES
Registration Fee
For birth clients, we charge a $400 registration fee. As a small facility, this fee reserves your spot with us and helps cover costs that are not billable to insurance. This fee may be waived for individuals on MassHealth Standard or Husky. If you cannot afford this fee, please speak to the practice manager about having it reduced or waived.
Missed Appointments
If you miss an appointment and did not contact us at least 24 hours prior to the visit, you will be assessed a $50 missed appointment charge which will needed to be paid prior to your next visit.
Classes
Prenatal and Parenting Classes cannot be billed directly to insurance. You must pay at time of registration. We do offer a sliding scale for all our classes. We are happy to provide you with a receipt you can submit to your insurance.
Nitrous Oxide
Insurance currently does not cover the use of nitrous oxide in labor. A fee of $200 is assessed if this service is requested in labor. You will be billed for this service after the birth. We also offer nitrous oxide for other in-office procedures such as IUD placements. The fee for this is $50 and must be paid at time of service.
Referrals
Some gyn services and occasionally some prenatal care requires a referral from your PCP. Nearly all PT care requires a referral. It is your responsibility to obtain a referral from your primary care or referring provider required by your insurance in order for us to initiate care with you.
