Northeast Georgia Physicians Group is a network of
Northeast Georgia Health System.
Offices are located throughout the region to provide high
quality, convenient primary and specialty care services.
Our goal is for patients to develop relationships with their
healthcare providers that foster open communication, wellness,
early detection of illness, and better health for each patient.
Each office has its own
personality: hours and services to meet the needs of the people
in each community. Each office is staffed by at least one
physician, supported by a team of healthcare professionals
ranging from office staff to Physicians' Assistants and Nurse
Practitioners.
Insurance
& Billing
As a convenience, primary and secondary insurances are filed by
our office. Should you wish to file your own insurance, you will
receive a receipt which contains all necessary filing
information. Fees are based on reasonable and customary charges
for the area. An estimated fee for any procedure will be given
on request.
We
accept most major insurance plans and encourage you to check
with your insurance company to determine if our physicians are
in your network.
Medication & Your Care
An examination for proper diagnosis and treatment is usually
required before a prescription can be given. Feel free to ask
questions about your treatment or prescription. We want you to
clearly understand the treatment, medications, the anticipated
results and any possible side effects. Also, if you are
concerned about the cost of a particular drug, ask about an
alternative.
Medication refills can only be handled during regular office
hours. Please plan ahead if you are running low on medication.
On-call physicians cannot refill medications
SmartTalk
To help remind you of your appointment, we have implemented
SmartTalk, an automated appointment reminder system. SmartTalk
will contact you two days before your appointment to remind you
of your scheduled appointment. If you do not want to participate
in the reminder program, please inform the receptionist.
