I am curious why this office does not accept cash patients. I realize that it's always better to have insurance, but if they are receiving the cash in advance I would think the worry that someone won't pay would dissolve. (If, of course that is the reason.) I cannot afford insurance, it is not provided through my work, and I also do not qualify for help through DSHS; leaving me responsible to pay for my own visits etc. It's hard to take care of your health (especially being a woman) when an office does not accept cash. It costs much more (extra facility fees etc.) to go to an office that uses another facility for procedures that this provider can do "in-office" so it is frustrating that they do not accept cash patients. I am most curious as to why....what is the difference? You can't get my health history from my insurance provider, so what does it matter how I pay as long as it's paid in full up front?
Pros: Have heard wonderful things about this physician
Cons: Office does not accept cash patients
