Patients and prospective patients may request from this facility and other health care providers a more personalized estimate of charges and other information. Patients and prospective patients should contact each health care practitioner who will provide services in the ASC to determine the health insurers and health maintenance organizations with which the health care practitioner participates as a network provider or preferred provider.

Services may be provided in this health care facility by the facility as well as by other health care providers who may separately bill the patient and who may or may not participate with the same health insurers or health maintenance organizations as the facility.

The following external laboratories may be used by Ocala Eye for pathology needs. Please visit the specified links for a list of their in-network health care plans.

It is our goal to inform our patients of their financial obligations prior to surgery, so there are no surprises or misunderstandings.  Upon a patient’s request, a Personalized Financial Estimate will be provided in writing.
