Important insurance change

Due to recent changes in healthcare, many of our families now have high deductible plans with HSA or FSA benefits. As of February 1, 2012, in addition to required co-pays, we will also be collecting payments for deductibles and coinsurances for visits that would be applied to your respective insurance deductible. As a courtesy we will be verifying your insurance deductibles, and will call with an estimate of what your portion will be prior to the visit. We encourage you as parents/guardians to get to know your insurance benefits well, so that you will be equipped with the knowledge you need to be prepared for each visit into our office.

If you have any questions or concern, please contact the billing department at
214-644-0280 x 3.

Sports/Camp Physical policy

RainTree Pediatrics believes that helping to evaluate and promote the health of your child is the most important service we can provide. Because of this, we follow the recommendations of the American Academy of Pediatrics and advise our parents that children should receive a complete health assessment and full wellness physical ("Well Child Visit") each year.

We do NOT perform separate abbreviated or assembly line exams - often called "sports physicals." The annual health assessment and physical exam performed at Well Child Visits in our office will be comprehensive and include any and all physical exam requirements for summer camps, competitive sports, etc. We will gladly complete the necessary forms for these activities at that time.

A current annual Well Child Visit allows us to any complete any subsequent permission/participation forms for the duration of one year; parents need only fax or request the forms and they will be completed. This "good for a year" exam policy applies as long a the child is current with the annual visit AND has not suffered any intervening fractures, concussions, or other major illnesses/injuries which might compromise the medical health of a child or interfere with their participation.

Telephone triage fee change

PLEASE NOTE: As of May 1, 2011 calls made to the after hours urgent care and triage line will be charged $15 per call. We encourage parents who are considering calling our after hours service to first consult the "Is Your Child Sick" section on the home page of this website where comprehensive answers to the majority of questions concerning your child's health can be found free of charge.
