Insurance and Billing Information
We accept all major insurances, including Virginia Medicaid, Tricare, and Cardinal Health. Please take the time to understand how your insurance plan works, especially regarding annual deductibles and co-pays, which can affect your out-of-pocket costs.
Unless you have HMO insurance that requires a referral from a primary care physician, a referral is not required. You can simply call our office to make an appointment.
If your insurance does require a referral, make sure it has not expired and remember to bring it with you to the appointment.
Everyone should bring a government-issued photo ID and their insurance card to every medical appointment.
We offer in-depth information about insurance in our billing and insurance section.
Preparing Your Daughter for Her First Gynecology Visit
No-Show Missed Appointments
We value you as our patient and need your cooperation in keeping your appointments so that we can provide care to your child. No showing/canceling an appointment means we cannot fill this appointment with another patient who needs our care.
Prescription Refills
We require 48 hour notice for all prescriptions. Prescription requests will need to be made during our regular business hours, Monday - Thursday, 8 a.m.-4:30 p.m., through the MyCHKD Patient Portal, or at your local pharmacy.
