Why do you need my credit card if you are submitting my order to insurance?

For a couple of reasons. We take assignment on some Medicare orders, depending on the products. (Please inquire if you need to know for certain prior to submitting your order.) We do take assignment on Blue Cross Blue Shield orders, but in many cases there is a CO-PAY due. Until we know if you have a CO-PAY and what the percentage is, we automatically charge a 20% CO-PAY. Generally, we check your CO-PAY percentage before charging your account. If your CO-PAY is less than 20%, you will receive a check from us for the difference. If your CO-PAY is more, you will receive a bill. Also, especially at the beginning of the year many people have deductibles that have to be paid before coverage by insurance companies. If you have insurance related questions feel free to email our insurance billing department.

We accept all Blue Cross Federal participants and most Blue Cross/Anthem participants that reside in Missouri.

Can I return an insurance order?

If your order has not already been submitted to your insurance company, and your return is still within the requirements of our Return Policy, your order can be returned. If your order has been submitted to your insurance company you cannot return your order. Once we have submitted to your insurance, we have no way of stopping the billing process and therefore we cannot reimburse.
