How to Prepare for an Appointment
Here is a reminder for patients in preparing for their doctor’s appointment with either the Community Medical Associates or Meadville Medical Clinic:
- Arrive 15 minutes early for your appointment. Too much time spent in doctor’s office waiting rooms can be frustrating, but one of the best ways to avoid a long wait is to show up 15 minutes ahead of your scheduled time. This gives you time to fill out forms and make any necessary updates to your information and insurance coverage. Arriving before your scheduled time helps keep your doctor on schedule as well.
- All patients are asked to follow the masking guidelines as posted at the facility.
- Bring your photo ID along with your insurance card. Please let us know if your insurance coverage has changed from the last time you saw your doctor.
- Any medication changes? Medications affect a patient’s healthcare daily! It is vital for a provider to understand the medicines, minerals, and vitamins their patient is taking. Any medications need refilled? Do not wait until your medications run out – CALL AHEAD FOR MEDICATION REFILLS.
- Be sure you can hear and see as well as possible and if you are struggling consider bringing a family member to your appointment.
Good Faith Estimate - A Patient's Right To Know.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate”explaining how much your medical care will cost
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical services.
• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any
non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests,
prescriptions drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
• Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1
business day before your medical service. You can also ask your health care provider,
and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule
services.
• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can
dispute the bill.
• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
