Payments

• A valid credit or debit card is required when scheduling your first and future appointments, which will remain on file for as long as you feel you will be seen at C.I.M.
• Credit or debit is preferred for security reasons, but cash/check is acceptable. All major credit cards are accepted and run via Stripe, which is securely integrated with the EMR.
• Payment in full is appreciated at the time of your visit, however we can make exceptions. 
• If you have a health savings account (HSA) or flex spending account (FSA) these are accepted, since this is a medical expense, and you will be provided an invoice and Superbill to submit.
• At the end of every visit you will be provided with an invoice, detailing the services performed, the amount due/paid for the visit, & the manner in which it was paid. You’ll also receive a Superbill, which is required by all insurers and includes all the usual and necessary medical codes and jargon.

Out-of-Network Insurance Filing

• Again, C.I.M. accepts NO PAYMENTS FROM INSURANCE and we DO NOT file ANY claims. However, if your insurance plan allows for out-of-network benefits, C.I.M. will provide you with a Superbill with both diagnosis and procedural codes appropriate to the visit that most closely reflect the work done. These approximate the standard reimbursements for the usual “CPT” codes recognized by payers. You may then submit this superbill to your insurance for reimbursement.
• However this NEVER applies to Medicare (or Advantage plans), Medicaid, TennCare, or Disability Insurance. If you have one of these plans you will not be given a Superbill.
