About New Patient Visit
A new patient visit is your first appointment with a doctor or specialist. It typically involves a more comprehensive evaluation than follow-up visits, including a detailed medical history, physical exam, and initial treatment plan. New patient visits generally cost more than established patient visits.
Understanding Your Bill
New patient visits are billed at higher rates than established patient visits due to the comprehensive evaluation required. Additional tests or procedures ordered during the visit are billed separately.
