Insurance Update - April 2026

Dear Valued Patients,

We would like to provide you with an update regarding our ongoing discussions with Blue Cross Blue Shield.

We remain committed to reaching a fair agreement that will allow us to continue providing high-quality care to you and our community. We have formally requested a meeting with Blue Cross Blue Shield and are currently awaiting confirmation so that negotiations can move forward.

In the meantime, please continue to keep your scheduled appointments as planned. Your care remains our highest priority, and we are working diligently to ensure continuity of care while minimizing any potential disruption.

If you are currently receiving treatment for a chronic condition, you should qualify for continuity of care coverage. You can request this by completing the following form:

Our team is available to assist you with this process if needed.

We will continue to keep you informed as new information becomes available. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our office—we are here to help.

Thank you for trusting us with your care.

Sincerely,
