Patient Resources

All of the information you need, in one place.

Whether dealing with back pain, brain tumor procedures or any other neurological condition, your focus should be on getting better. Navigating things like insurance, paperwork or surgery preparation can be confusing. Our professional staff is here to help you manage all aspects of your care.

Insurance

Paying for medical care can be confusing, and managing insurance may seem like a maze. We participate in most major New Jersey and Tri-State area insurance plans. Our on-site insurance specialist is here to assist you in managing your coverage to ensure that you receive the care you require with minimal obstacles.

Points to keep in mind:

  • In network benefits may apply for certain diagnoses and treatments which might utilize a surgeon who is outside your network.
  • Out-of-network care may be more affordable than you realize. Even if your surgeon is not a member of your insurance network, you are likely eligible for significant coverage through your plan’s out-of-network benefits.
  • Some insurance companies may require prior authorization for some services. As a service to you, our insurance specialists coordinate with your surgeon to secure and process any necessary pre-authorizations.
  • Payment plans are available for patients who need help managing costs.

If you have any questions regarding insurance or payment options, please contact our insurance and billing specialist. They can help you navigate through the details and determine your options.

New Patients

Our team of neurosurgeons, nurses and specialists should be your first choice when looking for compassionate, professional care for your neurological condition.

Making an appointment is easy. Simply contact us at one of our several offices around New Jersey to set up an appointment with a board certified neurosurgeon.

You may be asked to bring with you a medication list and any previous diagnostic testing results to your initial appointment. Our reception team will help guide you in preparing for your first appointment with us.

The Patient’s Journey

If you are scheduled for surgery, it helps to learn all you can about the procedure and what to expect. Our surgical specialists are available to discuss various aspects of your pending surgery. Topics discussed in your pre-op meeting include:

  • How to prepare for surgery
  • A description of your specific procedure
  • Hospital staffing
  • A virtual hospital tour
  • Resources available to you as you recover from surgery

Preparing for surgery or treatment can be difficult, and our professional staff is available to ensure that you know exactly what to expect from the hospital and your recovery process.
