Payment information:
Payment for services at Footprint Health and Wellness Centre are the responsibility of the patient and are to be paid at each visit. If a third party payer denies your claim and/ or refuses to pay for the full amount billed, you are responsible for paying the outstanding amount. I acknowledge that custom made and ordered devices are not refundable.
Cancelation policy:
Minimum of 24 hours notice is required to cancel or change an appointment. A charge may be applied if less then this is provided. Should you book an appointment and not attend, you are responsible to pay the entire cost of the appointment.
For surgical procedures, a deposit of $150.00 needs to be made in order to book the appointment. This deposit will be put towards the total cost of the surgery or if your insurance company directly bills the surgery, we will return your deposit upon completion of the procedure. A minimum of 48 hours is required in order to cancel your surgery without a penalty fee (the amount is subject to how much time is booked for the procedure, every 15 minutes is the cost of a regular follow-up appointment)
