Complex Care Pediatrics

You pay a fee (monthly or annual) directly to me, as I do not bill insurances.  In return you receive direct, unlimited access to me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Communication is available via phone call, texts, e-mail, or video chats.  When appointments are needed, they can be done the same or next day.  The fee you pay includes regularly scheduled well care, vaccinations and any acute care visits needed.  Home visits are also an option if needed especially for children with complex medical needs. 

Office tests like hemoglobin, strep, influenza and urine tests are included in your child's membership.  Other labs can be drawn in my office and sent to a lab at discounted rates as compared to when billed to your insurance.  In addition, I will help you with any coordination of care your child needs, timely signing of orders, and facilitating communication between all of your child's providers.  I am available to  attend, as a consultant, any sub-specialists appointments, hospital admissions, or ER visits.  I also can help with hospital admissions and will see your child in the hospital to follow with the hospital care team. 

My services are never billed to insurance, instead are covered by the fee you pay me.  However, some lab tests and  x-rays may be needed to care for your child, these will need to be covered by your insurance company. Additional services that will be covered by insurance include doctors other than me (like specialists), hospitalization and home care.   There are also times that your child may need to be seen in an Urgent care or Emergency room and your insurance will be billed by these providers.
