Accepted Insurance Providers

We partner with numerous health insurance providers to ensure that our patients receive the quality care they need. The following is a complete list of health insurance providers, networks and plans that we accept.

Your First Appointment

During your first visit, we will review your full medical history, discuss your current ENT-related symptoms or concerns, and perform a detailed physical examination. To ensure a precise diagnosis, your initial evaluation may also involve advanced in-office testing, such as fiberoptic nasal endoscopy, which allows for a closer examination of the nasal passages, vocal cords, and throat structures. In some cases, further diagnostic testing like hearing assessments, CT imaging, or allergy evaluations may also be ordered depending on your condition and treatment needs.

Following the exam and any necessary diagnostics, we will outline a personalized treatment plan tailored to your specific diagnosis. This plan may involve medications, lifestyle modifications, voice therapy, or surgical treatment when appropriate. We will take the time to thoroughly explain each option, answer your questions, and ensure that you are confident in moving forward with your treatment.

At Snowden ENT, we pride ourselves on delivering compassionate, one-on-one care and building strong relationships with every patient. Your comfort and long-term health are always our top priorities.

If you have any questions about your upcoming visit or would like additional new patient information, please don’t hesitate to contact our office. We look forward to meeting you.

Good Faith Estimate

At Snowden ENT, we prioritize transparency in order to ensure that you have a clear understanding of the anticipated costs associated with your medical care.

As mandated by federal law, we are required to provide you with a comprehensive Good Faith Estimate that summarizes the full expected expenses for your medical services if you do not have medical coverage or choose not to use it.

• You have the right to receive a written Good Faith Estimate at least 1 business day before your scheduled or non-emergency visit. This estimate will include the projected costs of all items and services anticipated during your visit, such as medical tests, hospital fees, and prescription drugs. In the event of emergent situations or additional testing during your visit, you will receive an updated Good Faith Estimate at the time of care.
• If you prefer, you may also request a Good Faith Estimate from your healthcare provider before scheduling a service. Please note that this estimate will be based on the available information at the time of scheduling. Keep in mind that the exact cost of care can only be determined after the evaluation, as the physician may recommend or require additional services.
• It is crucial to save a copy or take a picture of your Good Faith Estimate for your records. This document will serve as a reference and provide clarity regarding the expected costs of your treatment.
• Under the new patient-provider dispute resolution, you have the right to dispute a bill if it exceeds the Good Faith Estimate by at least $400, regardless of whether you have insurance or not. We are committed to working with you to resolve any billing concerns and ensure a fair and transparent process.

We are always available to address any additional questions or concerns you may have regarding your Good Faith Estimate or our billing process.
