 Dear Valued Patient,

  We have appreciated the trust you have placed in us over the years to take care of your sleep health needs. It is a responsibility that we take very seriously. Unfortunately, over the years, declining insurance reimbursements and rising costs as well as increased unpaid responsibilities (insurance appeals and administrative burden, prior authorizations, required forms and paperwork) have made providing superior care impossible within the current system.

  While we have worked hard to make it work, it has reached a place within our practice that we can no longer afford to deliver the care we expect of ourselves and stay beholden to medical insurance services. I suspect that many of you have felt this change...longer waits for returned phone calls, less access to your clinicians, delays in order processing. This is a direct result of our inability to afford paying for more administrative help in the current medical system.

 While we think that ultimately this change will benefit everyone involved, we certainly understand if you need to seek care with a provider that participates with your insurance plan. We are fortunate to practice in an area literally bookended by both the Sentara Hospital sleep providers as well as those at the University of Virginia. 

You will be required to pay my office directly, at the time of service for your visits. We will have several options to do so and will make every effort to minimize the strain of us no longer accepting insurance.

We hope that the experience you’ve had with us will encourage you to remain with our practice. Please know that we remain deeply committed to you and your sleep health. We’re happy to answer any questions you have regarding our change in healthcare insurance coverage. 

Sincerely,

Chris Winter
