Orthotic
Prescription Steps For Outside Labs:
(Brown & Toland HMOs) |
- Since Brown and Toland will not
contract with private offices for orthotics your prescription
is faxed to an outside lab that is contracted with
your insurance.
- When we fax your prescription we
also fax your insurance and demographic information
to the lab so they can authorize the orthotics with
your insurance.
- In about 2-3 weeks you will receive
a letter in the mail from Brown and Toland either approving
or denying your orthotics.
a) If approved please call the lab indicated below
to make an appointment for
casting.
b) If denied you can be casted in our office, but you
must pay a deposit of $150
for your orthotics. The combined price of casting
and orthotics at our office is $430. If your feet are scanned
by our Pedalign machine then the total cost of your orthotics
will be $350. Duplicate orthotics are $300.
- Feel free to call the lab to ensure
the authorization is underway.
- Once you receive your orthotics
from the outside lab please have the lab make any necessary
adjustments for comfort and shoe fit and then call
our office for an appointment with your doctor.
