Heart House Is Now Offering Telehealth Visits

Now, you can conduct a face-to-face appointment with your cardiologist using your phone, without leaving your home.  Telehealth visits are one of the many ways doctors and patients are adapting to the coronavirus pandemic, and this is a new technology for many doctors and patients alike. We are here to help get you prepared for your first telehealth visit.

Billing Statements

Statements are sent out on a monthly basis and payment is due upon receipt. For your convenience, the Heart House offers the option of payment by credit card or, if you prefer, you may mail your payment directly to our office. Questions regarding billing should be directed to our Business Office at 856-546-3003.

Co-Payments

Many plans require patients to pay a co-payment for each office visit. Co-payments are due when services are rendered.

Referrals

In order to see a specialist, many managed care plans require a referral from your primary care physician. It is your responsibility to obtain this referral prior to your visit. If a referral has not been approved by your insurance plan, your insurance may not pay for the visit. Without prior approval, you may be responsible for the charges associated with the visit.
