Patient Information

Arizona Center Chest Diseases Patient Information

Prior to your first office visit at Arizona Center Chest Diseases, we will request you fill out several forms. Some of these forms provide demographic, insurance information, and HIPPA compliance information. Other forms provide the physician with an overview of your symptoms and health history from which to initiate your office evaluation.

Alternatively, the forms will be provided upon arrival for your visit. We ask that you arrive at least 30 minutes prior to scheduled office visit to provide enough time to complete the forms and questionnaires if not completed ahead of scheduled visit. If forms are complete, please arrive 15 minutes prior to scheduled appointment time.

Patient Portal

All patients are required to register with an account through our patient portal.  This facilitates better communication and less reliance on voicemail and other forms of messaging.  Our patient portal is used for all non emergent communication.

Patient Forms

Patient forms and questionnaire will need to be completed before your visit.  Please take time to download your forms from the portal before your visit.

Financial Policy

Please bring your insurance card and photo ID to each office visit. If your insurance changes, please notify our billing office immediately to confirm that our physicians are contracted with your insurance plan.

If your insurance requires a copayment for services, it will be collected prior to office visit. For your convenience, we accept cash, checks, and credit cards (MasterCard, VISA, and Discover). We do not bill secondary insurance for copay. If you do not make your copayment at the time of service, we reserve the right to assess a $25 surcharge to cover administrative costs to collect balance.

Scheduling and confirmation of appointments

We will call you to confirm your appointment 2 business days prior to your scheduled visit. If we are unable to contact you, we will leave a voice mail message. Please respond to voice mail and confirm your appointment by noon prior to the day of office visit to secure your appointment. If we do not have confirmation of appointment by noon on the day prior to scheduled appointment, then we may offer your appointment to the next person on the waiting list.

We require that you provide a cell phone or daytime phone number by which we can contact you for confirmation as well as any unexpected schedule changes.

We attempt to schedule all future follow up appointments at the time of check out from present office visit.

Our office schedule and office physician availability is subject to change depending on our hospital coverage requirements. From time to time, it may be necessary to reschedule your visit. We recognize that this is an inconvenience and only requested as a last option. We appreciate your flexibility to accommodate any change.

If you are arriving late for your scheduled appointment

If you are arriving late for your visit for any reason, we appreciate notification when possible. We know that the unexpected happens and the delay may be outside of your control. We will make every effort to accommodate you as long as it does not cause further delay in other patient’s scheduled visit.

Cancellation policy

If you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment, a 48-hour notice is required. If you fail to keep your appointment without notification or last minute cancelation, a fee of $50 will be assed directly to you. We understand that schedule changes may be needed but we require sufficient notice so that we can provide service to other patients on the waiting list.
