Helpful Information for Prospective and Current Patients
Patient Forms
If you are a new patient or have not seen Dr Dufresne within the past 3 years, please complete the New Patient Packet and bring it to your appointment to streamline your visit with Dr Dufresne. If you do not complete the packet before your appointment, please plan to arrive at least 15 minutes before your appointment to allow enough time to complete it in our office before seeing Dr Dufresne. You may also wish to view or download our HIPAA Privacy Policy.
Payment Options
Whether paying privately for cosmetic surgery or paying only a portion for insurance-covered and approved reconstructive surgery, you have options! We accept cash, check, credit card (Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Discover), and CareCredit (a credit card for health, beauty, and wellness expenses).
Paying for Cosmetic vs Reconstructive Surgery
While reconstructive surgery may be covered, cosmetic surgery is not covered.
Insurance for Reconstructive Surgery
Dr Dufresne is not a participating provider with any insurance companies. As a courtesy, we will submit insurance claims on your behalf, once services have been paid for in full. If the insurance issues payment, we will reimburse you for that amount.
Most insurance companies require the patient and physician to submit a considerable amount of documentation before agreeing to pay for covered services. We will work with you to submit documents and fulfil requests from your insurance company. We are acutely aware that many patients have great financial difficulties (often compounded with injury, disability, and loss of income), and we will work with you to help.
Medicare for Reconstructive Surgery
Dr Dufresne is a Medicare participating provider. Like all Medicare providers, no referral is needed.
