Hospital and Surgical Locations With the opening of Memorial’s North Hospital (Briargate Parkway & Union Blvd.), many busy surgeons must decide where to practice in order to minimize travel time and maximize time devoted to direct patient care. The physicians of Front Range Orthopaedics have elected to practice at Memorial Hospital Central at 1400 E. Boulder Street (just west of the U.S. Olympic Training Center), and not to practice at the North hospital for now. One of the contributing factors in this decision is the advanced levels of care possible at the Central facility that are currently not available at the North facility.
For elective procedures, our physicians continue to hold privileges in the Penrose St. Francis System, and at most Ambulatory Surgery Centers in addition to Memorial Hospital Central. Please remember that Front Range Orthopaedics' physicians do not practice at Memorial Hospital North, even in response to emergency room visits. We are very happy to care for you or your family members at our Clinic or at Memorial Hospital Central.
Mission Our mission is to provide high quality, accessible, and
affordable orthopaedic services to patients and health plans. We pledge to
be friendly, efficient,
and exceed your expectations. If you are pleased with the care we provided,
we ask that you tell your friends and relatives. We depend upon your kind referrals.
Front Range Orthopaedics Financial Policy Welcome to our office! We are pleased you have chosen Front Range Orthopaedics
to provide your care and service. We would like to take a moment of your
time to inform you of the policies regarding payment with our office.
We accept cash, personal checks, Visa or MasterCard for payment of your account.
If you have no insurance, or have insurance, which we do not contract with,
you will be expected to pay for your visit in full, on the day of your visit.
If your insurance is one we do contract with, you are expected to pay your
co-pay at the time of your visit.
No Insurance If you have no insurance, we expect you to pay for your
visit at the time of service. In the event of surgery, our Financial Advisor
can
help answer questions about possible financial sources.
Medicare We are Participating Medicare Providers. We will submit your insurance
to Medicare. Medicare will process the payments to us. You will be responsible
for your deductible and any co-insurance at the time of service.
Medicaid We do participate with the Medicaid program. You must provide us
each month with a copy of your Medicaid card indicating that you are still
eligible for Medicaid. Should services by rendered, and you are no longer eligible
for Medicaid coverage, you will be responsible for payment based on our normal
fee schedule. All co-pays are to be paid on the day of service.
Contracted Insurance If you have insurance we do contract with, (this may
be verified from your insurance book given to you by your employer or agent)
we will submit your insurance claims for you if you supply us with the information
necessary to do so. This includes a copy of your card, and address to submit
claims to and a telephone number allowing us to verify your coverage. You still
are responsible for payment of your co-pay at the time of service, and any
amounts not covered by your insurance, including deductibles. If coverage is
denied for any reason, you are responsible for payment of the entire balance
due, based on our normal fee schedule.
Private Insurance As a courtesy we will be happy to file your insurance for
you. You will be required to provide all the necessary billing information.
If you owe on your deductible or owe a co-insurance we will need to collect
that at the time of service. All insurance payments that are paid directly
to you should be endorsed and paid to the physician. It is your responsibility
to contact your insurance in the event of non-payment. Many private insurance
companies in an effort to set physician fees restrict payment indicating that
fees are over the “Usual and Customary” fees for this area. We
have hired consulting firms to ensure that our fees are comparable to that
of other offices providing the same quality of care. We will not allow insurance
companies to set our fees for us, based on their ability or willingness to
pay.
Workers Comp/Auto Insurance If your visit here involves an accident related
injury, we must know the date of the accident, where the accident occurred,
and the name and telephone number of the adjuster for your case. We cannot
bill your regular health insurance for accident related injuries. If this information
is not provided, or your case is denied for payment for any reason, you are
responsible for payment of the entire balance due based on our normal fee schedule.
Non-Payment In the event your account becomes delinquent, you will be responsible
not only for charges incurred, but also any costs involved in collection of
your account. These include, but are not limited to, interest charges, rebilling
fee, court costs, attorney fees and collection costs. Insurance coverage is
a matter between you and your insurance company. You are ultimately responsible
for the payment of your account.
If you have any questions regarding our payment policies, please ask us before
your visit. Thank You.
