Fees
Sindecuse Health Center bills insurance companies for services rendered when a patient has insurance. Based on their insurance plan, patients may be responsible for copays, deductibles, coinsurance or non-covered services received.
We also accept payments for services without billing to an insurance company. Some visitors may choose to pay out-of-pocket if their insurance does not participate with the health center.
