Payment & Insurance
The Pediatric Care Center and The Young Adult Care Center participates with some insurance plans. We currently accept Cigna and Johns Hopkins Employee Health. If you have a question or need information about these plans, please contact the billing office (301) 564-5887. If we do not participate with your insurance, we will, at that time of payment, give you a universal claim form that you can submit to your carrier for reimbursement. For your convenience checks, cash, Visa, MasterCard, American Express and Discover are accepted.
It is important that you notify us of any change in address, telephone number or insurance so that we can give you proper documentation.
If you would like our assistance when speaking with your employer about obtaining insurance through these plans, we would be happy to help you. For any insurance questions, please contact our insurance/billing coordinator at (301) 564-5887.
WE ACCEPT CIGNA & HOPKINS EMPLOYEE HEALTH
Why doesn’t the PCC participate with more insurances?
The Pediatric Care Center and The Young Adult Care Center’s approach to insurance participation is based on our commitment to maintaining quality patient care in a warm and personal setting. In order to maintain the level of in-depth patient care on which we have built our reputation, we have made a conscious decision to take a limited number of managed care plans. By doing so, we can continue to see only a few patients per hour, rather than 6-8 or more. The extra time we are able to spend with you allows us to better meet your needs and affords us greater professional satisfaction in getting to know you and your families. Our goal at The Pediatric Care Center and The Young Adult Care Center is not to be a high volume, factory type of office that is so prevalent in medical care today.
There is nothing more important to us than the good health and development of your children and your family.
What can I do if I am self-insured or part of a small business?
Certain insurance policies are more favorable than others in terms of reimbursement. Our insurance/billing coordinator can help you with more specific information about these issues.
