Frequently Asked Questions
If you are not contracted with my insurance plan, why would I pay money up front to be seen at Health Quest Family Medicine?
- Have you ever called your doctor when you are sick only to be told that the next available appointment is a week away?
- Have you ever talked to your physician on the phone?
- Does your doctor listen to you – really listen?
- Has your doctor pushed your care off on a nurse?
- Has your doctor forced you to come in for an office visit just to renew your blood pressure medication prescription?
- Has your current provider asked you to make an appointment to discuss your lab results only to disclose that they were normal?
None of those situations will happen at Health Quest Family Medicine; we value your input, time and how hard you work for every dollar.
Can I use my Health Savings Account to pay for my services?
Yes. A Health Savings Account (HAS) allows patients to put aside part of their income in an account to be spent on medical expenses. It is not taxed like regular income and can be spent on drug store purchases, prescription medications, eye care, dental visits and doctor’s care, including at Health Quest.
Do you take insurance?
Yes, by request, Health Quest Family Medicine is contracted with some of the larger insurance plans including Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, Health Net and United Health Care.
Do you offer same-day appointments?
Yes. Our office reserves same day appointments for sick or acute visits. Because Anthem is a small town, people who are sick can wait at home instead of the waiting room, and our staff will call 10 to 15 minutes before an opening.
Can you perform minor surgery?
Yes. The Providers can perform most minor procedures from skin biopsies to stitches, in the office. The goal is to keep our patients out of urgent care facilities and emergency rooms, which are more expensive and time-consuming.
What happens if I have to go to the hospital?
If your medical condition requires that you be admitted to a hospital, we will call the doctor caring for you there to coordinate treatment as well as provide important background information and medical records.
Do you see children?
Yes. Our Providers training is in family medicine with a heavy emphasis in pediatrics. We gladly care for newborns, children and teenagers from childhood into adulthood.
Do you practice obstetrics?
Dr. Glick has delivered more than a hundred babies in residency and enjoys caring for pregnant women, but he believes the best care for moms-to-be is provided by obstetricians. We will happily provide prenatal care until a patient finds a obstetrician she’s comfortable with.
What about lab work and X-rays? Can I use my insurance for those?
Health Quest Family Medicine uses a system called "Point of Care Testing." These innovative devices allow the provider to perform routine tests in the office and get results minutes later, including cholesterol, diabetes, strep and flu among others, for an additional fee (see fee schedule). If the provider determines additional lab tests or X-rays are needed, they will write a prescription and testing will be done at another site. In those instances, insurance typically covers the cost.
Do you make house calls?
Most doctors stopped making home visits when medical insurance replaced pay-as-you-go, and administrative costs and malpractice insurance fees forced doctors to abandon individual practices and join together in groups. By the early 1970s, fewer than 1 percent of doctors made house calls. But the providers at Health Quest Family Medicine are making house calls again, using advances in technology like laptop computers, digital cameras and the Internet to gain access to the information they need when they're out of the office. There’s no reason to drag a sick child or frail elderly patient out of their comfortable bed. Let us come to you.
