Welcome to Comprehensive Endocrinology
We are looking forward to participating in your Endocrine care. Comprehensive Endocrinology was founded by Claudia Panzer, M.D., ECNU, NCMP in 2007.
We are a direct pay practice, which means that we focus on personalized quality care focused on you without insurance companies being the middleman.
One of the main reasons I am moving to a direct pay model is to reduce the administrative burden imposed by insurance companies. This change will allow me to spend more time focusing on your care, rather than on paperwork and insurance requirements. Additionally, in the traditional insurance model, many important aspects of care—such as answering your questions through the patient portal—are not reimbursed, even though they are essential to your health. The direct pay model enables me to provide more timely and comprehensive care, with fewer barriers and delays.
Under the new direct pay model, patients with commercial insurance (including Medicare Advantage Plans) will pay for their visit at the time of service. Patients with commercial insurance will be able to seek reimbursement from their insurance company, and I will provide you with the necessary documentation to submit your claim (full receipt including fees and diagnostic codes). Patients with Medicare Advantage plans may get reimbursed depending on their HMO or PPO status. There are user-friendly apps available to help streamline this process, and my staff will be happy to assist you with any questions.
Please note that my ability to order laboratory tests and prescribe medications for you will not be affected by the transition to a direct pay model. You will continue to receive all necessary lab orders and prescriptions as part of your ongoing care, just as you have in the past. You may use your insurance at your preferred laboratory and pharmacy as usual.
