Unfortunately, we are not credentialed with Medicare. 

We encourage you to contact your insurance company prior to your first visit at Amend, or any time there are changes to your plan, to ensure coverage. You may be responsible for out-of-pocket expenses should our clinic be out-of-network.

Emergency departments are the preferred setting to treat severe conditions like choking, difficulty breathing, neck/spine injuries, severe burns, chest pain or pressure, seizures, stroke-like symptoms and more.

Items you should bring to your appointment include:

• your insurance card
• your state-issued ID (driver’s license)
• a list of your medications

We appreciate when patients bring their medications to their first visit, if able. This allows us to get an accurate list of medication names, strengths, and dosing instructions. Any past medical, surgical, or family history you wish to bring with you is appreciated as well. 

Absolutely! We are able to provide copies of your immunization records at your request. You can request these by calling our office or asking for them at your next visit. 

You can access your medical records through the Practice Fusion patient portal. Once you are established with us at the clinic, you will receive an email invitation to sign up for the portal. This can be accessed from your phone or computer. You can talk to clinic staff if you need to access hard copies of your records or need them sent to another location for any reason. You are able to sign a Release of Information (ROI) through the clinic if needed. 

No, there is no cost to access your records.
