We will help you get reimbursed
At shrinkMD, providing the highest quality care for our patients is our top priority. While we are currently out-of-network with insurance, we do offer an itemized bill that you can submit to your insurance for reimbursement. We understand the importance of timely reimbursements, which is why we recommend using Reimbursify to file claims, track submissions, and get paid quickly.
