Family Nurse Practitioner Owned Care Center
Riverside Family Clinic, Inc., is a Nurse Practitioner owned clinic. There are no physicians on site and you will not see a physician during your visit to our clinic. The State of Indiana requires a licensed physician (DO or MD) to collaborate with a Nurse Practitioner concerning the prescribing of medications. Dr. Michelle L. Snyder, D.O. is the supervising physician for prescriptive authority for Riverside Family Clinic, Inc.
In Case of Emergency
In the event of a life-threatening emergency, please go directly to the nearest emergency room, (by ambulance if appropriate), and advise the staff that you are our patient. If you are having a medical problem after hours or on Saturdays, Sundays, and Holidays, you will need to go to the nearest ER.
Insurance and Office Billing
Our practice participates in many insurance plans. An updated list is available on this website or by contacting our billing office. Since each plan has different requirements and coverage limitations and exclusions, it is the responsibility of the patient to understand and meet the requirements of their individual plan. Most patients will have a “co-pay” (a portion of their charges which is not covered by insurance). Those covered by Medicare and some other insurance plans may have “deductibles” as well. Many insurance plans and Medicare do not consider “routine” check-ups (those performed without regard to a specific medical problem) or “screening” laboratory studies to be covered services. Co-pays, deductibles, and non-covered charges are payable at the time services are rendered. Our billing staff is available to assist you with questions you may have about coverage conditions and payment arrangements. We accept payment by cash, personal check, Visa, and MasterCard.
