Attention: BCBS/FloridaBlue Subscribers

After 30+ years of dedicating ourselves to providing low cost, high quality medical care, BCBS has unilaterally terminated our contract effective 11/1/25. We strongly encourage you to change insurers to protect your rights to accessible healthcare, to choose your preferred providers, and avoid costly OON expenses.

Insurance Information

Changes to Patient Insurance or Status

It is always the patient's or legal caregiver's personal responsibility to inform all of their doctors of any changes to demographics, insurance, or hospice status. 


This must be done as soon as the change is completed to ensure your providers can address the changes and reduce the risk of costly out of pocket expenses.

Authorizations and Referrals

Please note that if your insurance requires an authorization or referral, it is always the patient's responsibility to have seen their primary care provider and obtain one. Our office performs this service as a courtesy, but the responsibility and contractual obligation remains that of the patient.


If your appointment needs to be rescheduled because a valid authorization/referral is not on file, you may be charged a service fee. Please always verify prior to your appointment when we call you to confirm your appointment if you are unsure.
