Please call the Center to check on the latest updates to our insurance programs. (802) 445-3152.
If you have insurance other than those listed above, our office managers will be more than happy to give you the necessary forms to submit to your insurance company. Often insurance companies will reimburse a portion of your claim. Please check with your health insurance company for any out of network benefits that may apply.
Your employer may offer a Flexible Medical Spending account as a benefit. Most if not all of our services should be covered under these plans. You will need to check the details of your individual employer's coverage. Supporting documentation may be required which our doctors can provide. Optimizing your health and well-being is a sensible way to spend your pre-tax dollars.
The Future of Medicine
"We are breaking away from the current medical-financial model that requires physicians to spend only ten to fifteen minutes per patient," explains Dr. Stram. "We believe this is the future of medicine, and we know more and more people are recognizing this with their willingness to pay out of pocket for consultations. We strive to set fair fees and to provide great value for the amount of time and care we take with each individual. We work with individuals to obtain insurance coverage whenever possible."
