Dr. William B. Hutcheson & Associates

Receiving Your Benefits 
Our goal is to help you get the most out of your insurance benefits. In order to accomplish this, we must have certain information about your plan and may need to request preauthorization before you arrive for your visit.  Please have your insurance card with you when you call to schedule your appointment. 

Participating vs. Non-Participating 
In today's health care environment, plans and insurance administrators can change the benefits they offer you, the patient, and the protocol they impose on us, the providers, from day to day.  We participate with most of the eye care and routine vision care plans in the area.  If we are a Participating Provider for your plan, we will take care of the paperwork. The only fees we will ask of you will be appropriate copays or for non-covered services or materials. If we are not currently a par provider with your plan, we ask that you come to your appointment prepared to pay our usual and customary fees.  We will gladly provide you with a superbill or a HCFA and help in any way we can to get you appropriate reimbursement from your non-par plan.
