Your Guide to Insurance & Billing
What to Bring to Your Appointment
To ensure a smooth check-in process, please bring your current physical insurance card, a valid state-issued photo ID (like a driver's license), and any required referrals from your primary care doctor. Having these ready allows our staff to quickly verify your benefits so we can focus on treating your foot and ankle pain.
Understanding HMO vs. PPO Plans
Navigating insurance networks can be confusing. If you carry a PPO plan (such as a standard Anthem or Cigna PPO), you generally have the flexibility to schedule an appointment directly with Dr. Soltani without needing a prior referral. However, if you are on an HMO plan, your insurance will likely require an official authorization or referral from your Primary Care Physician (PCP) before we can treat you. Our front desk team is highly experienced in coordinating with local Orange County medical offices to help facilitate this process.
Out-of-Network & Cash-Pay Patients
If you do not see your specific health insurance provider listed above, please don't let that stop you from getting the care you deserve! We strongly believe that everyone should have access to expert podiatric treatment. We welcome out-of-network patients and offer highly competitive, transparent self-pay rates for uninsured individuals. We also provide flexible payment options to ensure your path to recovery remains affordable.
