Billing
We bill insurance companies as a courtesy. We are preferred providers for TriWest. Dr Lawrence Norton is a Medicaid/Denali Kid Care provider as well.
Will my insurance cover these services?
It depends. Often the educational portion of these evaluations are not covered. You
should contact your insurance company to determine coverage, and to determine if pre-authorization is required. Click here before you call your insurance company to determine what they may or may not cover for testing or counseling.
Do I need Pre-authorization for testing?
Usually yes-but you can discuss this with Dr Norton at the Pre-Evaluation/diagnostic appointment. Dr. Norton can then provide you with specific pre-authorization information for your insurance company. For pre-evaluation appointments, click here.
