The No Surprises Act & Good Faith Estimates

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, healthcare providers must give an estimate of the bill for medical items and services to patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.

Notice for Pediatric Dermatology Patients & Guardians

At Skin MD, we want to be a part of how you teach your child to seek care and how to interact with healthcare providers. Children are curious about their treatments, their ailments, and the next steps in their care process.

To treat our youngest patients safely and effectively, we require that all minors be accompanied by a legal guardian. Otherwise, we may not be able to offer the care that our pediatric dermatology patients need.

If you have questions about this policy, please contact us today.
