Account Balances: I am responsible for the timely payment of my account balances, co-insurance, and deductibles.
All balances are due in full within 30 days of my first billing. Any balance left unpaid after 90 days, without an
attempt at resolution, will be considered delinquent and may be submitted to a collection agency. If I am having
financial difficulty, I will call the billing office to discuss a payment plan.
Minor patients: A legal guardian must accompany children under the age of 18 to their initial appointment so that
the proper forms can be filled out and signed. Follow up visits do not require a guardian’s presence, unless a
procedure is being performed that requires a signed consent form.
Appointment Cancellations: If I am unable to keep my scheduled appointment, I will call Calais Dermatology to
cancel or reschedule my appointment. Surgical appointments require 48-hour cancellation notice. Regular and
Cosmetic appointments require 24-hour cancellation notice. Deposits for Cosmetic appointments are non-
refundable in the event the appointment is not cancelled 24 hours in advance.
Skin Biopsies: Calais sends all skin biopsies to Sagis Labs. Sagis provides us with comprehensive diagnostic and
prognostic information so we can accurately diagnose the disease, prescribe effective therapies, and initiate early
treatment options. If you would like your labs to be sent to a different lab, it is your responsibility to let the
nurse know at the time of your visit.
