Q. What makes Round Rock
Orthotics & Prosthetics different from other facilities?
Round Rock Orthotics and Prosthetics is different from other O&P
facilities in the area because we are a practitioner owned and
operated practice. Because we are privately held, we are able to
focus all of our effort and attention on our patients.
Our practioners are always seeking out advances in technology to
provide our patients with the most modern techniques in patient
care.
We make round the clock hospital visits to the largest trauma
center in central Texas. Numerous hospitals call our facility to
treat trauma patients, even when there may be other facilities
closer to the hospital. We work very closely with rehabilitation
facilities and physical therapists to establish both long term
and short-term patient care plans.
Our staff goes above and beyond the realms of customer service
to deliver the utmost in patient care and treatment. Our
patients are our number one concern.
Q. Does my insurance pay
for this service?
We accept most insurance plans, both HMO and PPO, Medicare,
Medicaid and Workers Compensation. Our Insurance Department is
highly knowledgeable in the ever-changing health insurance
industry. Prior to the evaluation appointment we can verify your
insurance and inform you on what your insurance will and will
not cover.
Q. Do I need an
appointment?
In order to assure our patients personalized and individual
attention, it is best that we see each patient by appointment.
Q. Do I need a
prescription from my doctor?
It is best if your physician provides a prescription for you in
time for your initial visit at Round Rock Orthotics &
Prosthetics; however, our Insurance Coordinator specializes in
obtaining prescriptions and other necessary documents from your
physician in order to treat you. As a courtesy to our patients,
we will contact the physicians to obtain the prescription if one
is not provided to you prior to your initial visit.
Q. How much does the
Office Visit cost?
Round Rock Orthotics and Prosthetics does not charge for the
Evaluation Appointment. We only bill the insurance or a patient
for the cost of the device we are providing. Follow up visits
and adjustment appointments are free of charge for the first
year after receiving your device.
Q. How long will it take
for me to get my device?
Our office strives to fit every orthotic service within two
weeks, however, because each insurance plan is different, there
may be times when extra paperwork is needed to authorize the
fitting of your orthotic, so this process may take longer. Each
patient is different as well, and most of our products are
custom fitted to the patient. On you initial visit, it is
helpful if you bring your prescription with you to expedite
services.
Prosthetic services are much more involved and these devices
vary as well. Depending on healing time and funding for the
patient, prosthetic services require three or more visits before
the final device is delivered. We work very hard at keeping
patient waiting periods to a minimum and if there is ever a
problem working within this timeframe, we will contact the
patient to inform them of the situation.
Q. What insurance
contracts do you accept?
Our office is contracted with most HMO and PPO policies. They
include:
Accountable Health Plans of Texas, Inc; AWCA; Aetna; Blue Cross
Blue Shield; CCN- One Source; ChoiceCare Network; Cigna; Corvel;
Ethix Southwest; Galaxy Heath Network; HealthSmart; HPO; Humana;

Austin & CHIP; Texas True Choice; Tricare; Unicare of Texas; USA
Managed Care Organization.
New contracts are added regularly, so please check when
scheduling an appointment that we are contracted with your
insurance provider. If we are not contracted with your plan, our
insurance department will be happy to verify whether you have
out of network benefits. In most cases, we are able to assist
patients with the financial assistance they may need through
third party organizations or payment plans if necessary.
Q. What if I don’t have
insurance?
Round Rock Orthotics and Prosthetics is affiliated with several
organizations that provide funding for patients that may not
have insurance or need assistance with out of pocket costs after
their insurance is billed. Our insurance department will assist
you in any way possible to find funding for services that we
will provide you. We have been very successful finding funding
for many patients in the past using the resources available to
us. |
