Registration Information
Patients wishing to continue under Dr. Stewart's care in 2016 will need to
notify us of this before or during the month of January 2016. We will provide a new
payment agreement and updated HIPPA privacy agreement so we will be able to
communicate with you on whatever terms you wish.
Financial Policies
Payment options You have three options for paying the membership fee:
- You can pay monthly using a direct payment from your bank. Each monthly payment
will be $65.00.
-
If you are already set up for automatic bank
withdrawals to pay for your care, and you want to continue seeing me after April
1, you do not need to do anything.
We will simply increase your withdrawal amount up to $65 starting April 1, and
continuing through December. If you
want to stop seeing me at any time, just let us know in writing, and we will
stop the automatic withdrawal
- If you prepaid last year, but want to switch to
automatic bank payments this year, we need a voided check from you to set this
up.
If you pre-paid for last year and you want to
pre-pay for this next year with a check or credit card, the amount you will need
to pay depends on when your subscription ends.
o
If your subscription year starts in January (most
non-Medicare patients who did not have Regence or Aetna insurance), you can
prepay a total of $732 for the year.
o
If your subscription year starts in February
(mostly patients who were covered with Regence or Aetna through January), a
prepayment of $683 will cover you until the end of the year.
o
If your subscription year starts in April (most
Medicare patients), $585 will cover until the end of 2016.
We are no longer offering prepaid quarterly
subscriptions (because we have trouble keeping track of them), except for
patients who want to purchase a 3 month subscription with no intention of
continuing care after that time. People
who want to subscribe for less than a year should sign up for monthly automatic
bank withdrawals. We require a minimum of
3 months payment per subscription, but will terminate any time after 3 months by
request of the patients
Cancellation You can cancel your subscription by
sending us a written request as long as we
receive it before the first day of the next calendar quarter. If you prepaid
for an entire year,
we will refund the amount you prepaid for any remaining quarters.
Registration fee If you don’t subscribe to the practice at the beginning of
2015 but decide
later to subscribe, or if you want to rejoin the practice after cancelling
your subscription,
you will be charged an additional registration fee of $100 for the first
quarter of your subscription.
You will not have to pay a registration fee if you remain continuously
subscribed.

Yearly Subscription Fee for Enhanced Access,
Technology, and Non-Covered Services
Since we are no longer participating in insurance plans, and since we are now
receiving a subscription fee for membership in the practice, we no longer
charge our yearly enhanced access, technology, and non-covered services fee.
