General Information

Hospitalization

We admit patients to Northwest Hospital, an outstanding medical facility serving the north Seattle community. When you are hospitalized, a team of skilled hospitalists will take care of you. They will be in touch with us so we can monitor your progress.

 

Prescription Refills

Simply call your pharmacy when you need a prescription refilled. The pharmacy will then ask the office for the necessary authorization. Please call the pharmacy at least 48 hours before running out of a medication. If you need a refill for the weekend, please call by Thursday so we can authorize it in time.

 

Payment and Insurance

To assist us in keeping our costs low, we encourage you to pay your bill at the time of your visit.

We maintain contracts with most insurance companies and will bill them for your care. You will be responsible for deductibles and co-pays, as well as other amounts not paid by your insurer. If yours is an insurance company we do not bill directly, we will provide you with a statement to send for reimbursement.

Please contact our office to verify whether we belong to your particular plan.

 

Telephone Calls

We encourage you to call with any questions or concerns during clinic hours. A provider or his or her assistant will call you back as soon as time permits later that day or evening. In emergency situations, the provider or his or her assistant will be brought to the phone promptly.

We offer 24-hour phone coverage for after-hours calls. If you call when the office is closed, the answering service will notify us.

 

Support Staff

Our staff includes a clinic manager, a medical assistant for each provider, certified laboratory technicians, X-ray technicians, receptionists, medical records, referral and bookkeeping staff.
