Does Smart Choice accept insurance?
Our clinic has a model of healthcare that finally addresses a huge segment of the population who are working individuals struggling with today’s skyrocketing medical costs and insurance premiums. So, if you’re a contractor, self-employed individual, small business owner, freelancer, teacher, college student, or other individual who needs a primary care provider, come see us at Smart Choice to experience the care you deserve and can afford. With a Smart Choice membership, your costs could be even more affordable. Smart Choice provides services on a cash-payment basis, with payment at the time of service, and doesn’t consider insurance as a form of payment.


What are our reasons for not taking insurance?
We consider it a much better and preferred way to take care of patients, as there’s no insurance hassle, paperwork, wasted resources, and mandates. This in turn creates a healthy relationship between our professionals and their patients. Our membership option fosters this relationship.
What types of payments are accepted?
We accept cash, cashier’s check, debit card, Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover.
What should I bring to my first visit?
Please bring in your form of payment, a photo ID and a list of any medications you’re currently taking.
What can I expect at my appointment?
First, you’ll be greeted and checked in by our receptionist. If the forms we need weren’t already completed online, we’ll provide you with the forms to be filled out in the clinic. After the forms are reviewed, you’ll be given an approximate wait time. When you are next, a medical assistant or nurse will escort you to a private room for your visit. At the end of the visit, if applicable, you’ll get a summary of your treatment, a recommendation, a prescription, a referral, and/or a follow-up appointment booking.
Will I receive a bill?
No, you will never receive a bill. Payments are made at the time of service. If you are a member of Smart Choice Medical Clinic, your monthly membership fee will cover your clinic visit.
How is the clinic staffed?
Smart Choice Medical Clinic is staffed by certified nurse practitioners, medical assistants, and/or nurses. The nurse practitioners maintain a collaborative practice agreement with an independent physician, facilitating consultation as needed.

What is a nurse practitioner?
A nurse practitioner is a healthcare professional who is fully licensed, credentialed, and clinically experienced to provide primary healthcare. The nurse practitioner is trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of basic medical conditions, perform and interpret certain diagnostic tests, manage a wide array of medical conditions, administer vaccinations, make appropriate referrals for specialty or more advanced care, and prescribe medication when appropriate. Where required by law, nurse practitioners maintain a collaborative practice agreement with an independent physician and facilitate consultation as needed.
