Yes, you can use Be:Seen if you have insurance. Be:Seen is an excellent care solution when your insurance isn't providing the service you want or need. Patients have the right under federal law to request their providers to not bill their insurance. When that happens, they have the right to participate and pay the direct rates. In many cases, the direct pay rates are lower than what patients pay with insurance even after their insurance company credits, deductions, and payments.
Examples:
Scenario 1:
Patient A is a healthy 35-year-old man who would like to see a dermatologist. He can't get into his regular care doctor that is under his insurance for a referral for weeks. Even with that being the case, he will have to wait for his insurance to approve the request.
Scenario 1 using Be:Seen:
1. Patient A comes to Be:Seen Health
2. Patient A search's specialist's, compares pricing and availability
3. Patient A books the appointment
4. Patient A pays the direct price listed on the provider's profile
5. Patient A gets the care he needs quicker than he would have with insurance and at a lower rate
Scenario 2:
Patient B is a 60-year-old woman and has ongoing chronic health issues. Patient B requires care often and needs many expensive medical procedures. Patient B uses insurance for chronic health issues. Lately, Patient B has been noticing some allergy symptoms; Patient B doesn't want to pay a co-pay or the high prices doctors charge due to what insurance companies require. Patient B already spends so much on healthcare as it is with her ongoing health issues.
Scenario 2 using Be:Seen:
