Insurance

Congratulations!! You took a pregnancy test and it came out positive. Then you scheduled a consult and tour at our birth center. And while you visited us, we put together an estimate for your insurance coverage. Most people really don't understand how their insurance plans actually work. I mean, they understand that they have insurance but they often don't understand why they have to pay anything out of pocket or a how we come up with the estimate, so we thought we would help break this down for you.  But first: there are different ways people obtain insurance plans.

Birth Center News!

I feel like I am going to burst with this good news and I should probably wait until Kaleen makes the announcement herself, but I feel like a balloon about to burst!! Kaleen had a meeting with our back up OBGYN today and she is going to have privileges at South Seminole Hospital! What this means to our patients and to our practice is that if for some reason we have to go to the hospital, Kaleen will be overseeing that patients care unless it is something that the doctor himself has to do. For instance, if a lady's labor stalls and she needs pitocin to get contractions going harder or she needs pain management, Kaleen can order this!!! I am so proud of her and what she has accomplished and how much of a difference she can make for our patients. Kudos to Kaleen!
