Billing & Insurance
From insurance information to online bill pay and self-pay rates, we’re here to answer all of your billing and insurance questions. If you have a question that you can’t find an answer to here, please give us a call.
BASC will bill your insurance company or the responsible party for your services separately from your surgeon, the anesthesiologist (if required for your surgery), and pathology or laboratory charges, if a specimen or sample was taken.
You will be billed for any amount determined to be your responsibility, such as deductibles and co-pays. We accept Visa, Mastercard, and Discover to assist you in paying for your services. To ensure proper filing of claims, please bring valid insurance cards with you on the date of surgery.
INSURANCE INFORMATION
BASC proudly accepts all major insurance carriers, including Medicare.
It is the patient’s responsibility to satisfy the conditions of your insurance plan; therefore, we strongly recommend that you contact your insurance carrier to confirm benefits and any requirements prior to surgery (such as pre-authorization). It is the patient’s responsibility to verify that your insurance plan covers our facility services.
NON-COVERED SERVICES
BASC cannot be held responsible for claims denied for failure to meet specific requirements on your behalf. Patients undergoing cosmetic procedures, or patients who are undergoing “non-covered services” (as determined by your insurance carrier) must pre-pay in full by making arrangements with our billing department. Cash, major credit cards, and cashiers checks are accepted, however payment cannot be made by personal check.

My 15 month old daughter just had eye surgery there this morning. The nurses, doctors and front desk staff were all amazing. They explained everything that was going to be done and eased my nerves. Would definitely recommend them.
