Good Faith Estimates

If you don’t have health insurance, or you choose not to use your insurance for a service, federal law gives you the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate of what your care will cost — before you receive it.

You can ask us for an estimate before scheduling a service, or at any time during your care. If you schedule a service at least 3 business days in advance, we will provide your estimate within 1 business day of scheduling. If you schedule at least 10 business days in advance, or you ask for an estimate before deciding to schedule, we will provide it within 3 business days of your request.

A Good Faith Estimate is an estimate, not a bill and not a contract. Your actual charges may differ — for example, if additional services are needed during your care.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill through the federal patient-provider dispute resolution process. Keep a copy of your estimate in case you need it.

To request a Good Faith Estimate, call us at (704) 376-9849. Learn more at cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.

Financing & payment options

Some treatments are an investment, and insurance does not cover everything. To make care easier to plan for, our office offers financing through CareCredit — a credit card designed for health and wellness expenses — so qualified patients can spread the cost of treatment over time instead of paying it all at once.

You can apply online before your visit, or ask our team when you schedule and we will walk you through the financing options currently available.
