INSURANCE

We participate in most major insurance plans and will file your insurance claims for you. Before seeing us, kindly secure a letter of authorization from your Human Resources Officer, the HMO concierge, or the HMO clinic. Please see INSURANCE for all our accreditations.

We ask that your insurance card be readable. It should have the claim’s mailing address on it, and we will need your identification number for the policy. If you do not have this information or if you have a policy that restricts which providers you see, please call your insurance company to get the information needed before seeing us.

All co-payments are due at the time of the appointment.

NO INSURANCE

We will require payment during service if you do not have insurance coverage. Payment must be made upfront for visits. We accept cash, GCash, online bank-to-bank transfers to BPI, and all major credit cards.

Payment plans are not available.

BILLING STATEMENTS

These discounted rates include all applicable discounts and taxes for published hospital packages. No further discounts may be applied. They may be settled via credit card or cash at the hospital billing section.

These discounted rates for published eye clinic packages include all applicable discounts and are subject to eVAT when appropriate. They may be settled via cash, GCash, online bank-to-bank transfers to BPI, or credit card.

For complicated cases that are excluded from published hospital/eye clinic packages, a net billing statement may be issued to you for your guidance with the settlement.

This net billing statement is

  • net of Senior Citizen/PWD discount: the 20% discount has already been applied (e.g. For a net bill of 10,000 pesos. Gross bill 14,000 pesos = 12,500 pesos + 12% eVAT 1,500 pesos; 12,500 pesos VAT exempt - 2,500 pesos (20% SC/PWD) = 10,000 pesos net).
  • net of eVAT: kindly show your Senior Citizen card, or PWD card, for eVAT exemption. The BIR requires us to list the senior citizen/PWD number and secure the cardholder's signature on the official receipt.
  • net of PhilHealth: the surgeon will receive a small RVS component for the physician's professional fee on top of the net bill collected.

CANCELLATIONS

PREPAID

Both teleconsult and face-to-face prepaid consultations are automatically discounted. They are not eligible for reimbursements in the event of a cancellation or no-show.

We understand that there may be valid reasons for a cancellation or no-show. Therefore, as a courtesy to our prepaid patients, we can extend a single instance of rescheduling within one month from the initial booking. Another cancellation or no-show forfeits the pre-payment in favor of the clinic to cover administrative costs and capacity/slot lost for the missed appointment.

Once the refund request has been received, we reserve the right to review or evaluate the patient’s reason for refund on a case-by-case basis.
