Financials
Indian Creek offers insurance billing services through Hamilton Billing. If you have insurance, we ask that you contact Hamilton Billing and complete an insurance assessment to learn exactly what your insurance coverage is and what out of pocket costs would be for your family. In order to schedule your first visit, we require the insurance assessment to be completed by Hamilton Billing. A financial agreement and payment plan for out of pocket costs will be established for all clients receiving maternity care. Every insurance plan is different regarding criteria for reimbursement, however, most private insurance plans will reimburse at least a portion of the cost of services. If you have insurance, please contact Hamilton Billing at hamiltonbilling.com to complete an insurance assessment. If you do not have insurance, please email us to discuss cost at info@indiancreekbirthcenter.com
