Patients with no insurance are eligible for a 50% discount.  (We cannot offer this discount if you have insurance.  We also cannot discount balances after they have been processed by your insurance).

For an excellent link to online information regarding insurance in general, please visit www.healthcare.gov/.

Deductible – The amount you pay for your healthcare services before your health insurer pays.  Deductibles are based on your benefit period (typically a year at a time).  Example:  If your plan has a $2,000 annual deductible, you will be expected to pay the first $2,000 toward your healthcare services.  After you reach $2,000 your health insurer will cover the rest of the costs.

Coinsurance – A certain percent you must pay each benefit period after you have paid your deductible.  This payment is for covered services only.  You may still have to pay a copay.  Example: Your plan might cover 80 percent of your medical bill.  You will have to pay the other 20 percent.  The 20 percent is the coinsurance.

Carolina Family Practice & Sports Medicine is now partnering with LabCorp for our patients’ phlebotomy and laboratory needs.

An on-site lab can be found at our Cary, Raleigh and Holly Springs locations.

If your CFPSM provider has ordered laboratory tests that do not require an office visit with your provider, we ask that you please call to schedule a “Lab Only” visit.

While we realize this is new and an extra step on your part, it is necessary for us to place you on a schedule in order to ensure that your labs are not only ordered properly, but also ensures that the results come back in a timely manner for your provider to review them and communicate the results to you.

You can schedule your lab only visit by calling 919-238-2000, option 1.

Please also note that LabCorp facilities within our offices can only process labs ordered by a CFPSM provider and can NOT process self-pay labs.  To schedule an appointment for labs ordered by an outside provider or for self-pay labs, please visit www.labcorp.com to find a LabCorp patient service center near you.

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we continue to make improvements to your healthcare experience.

My Coupon Doc is your source for healthcare coupons and discounts.

We launched in April 2012 with one goal: to make healthcare more affordable through the discounts that we source. Americans are hurting – Copays on medications have more than doubled over the past ten years alone, and insurance premiums have increased over 20% on average. We want to help you save on what matters – you won’t find deals on restaurants or oil changes here. Just deals on the medications you need to stay healthy.

The process is simple – search by medication or illness to find coupons that are relevant to you, or if you want to just see all the discounts we have available take a look at our coupon directory. We’ve indexed over 400 coupons on the most common prescription and over-the-counter medications out there. All you have to do is click on the redeem button, fill out any of the required information, print the coupon, and take it with you to the pharmacy. A few minutes of work can lead to hundreds of dollars in savings annually.

In January 2018, CFPSM began the journey to becoming a Primary Care Medical Home (PCMH). This is a certification awarded by the Joint Commission.

A primary care medical home is a model of healthcare centered around the needs of our patients.

As a primary care medical home, we partner with our patients to ensure all of their physical and mental healthcare needs are met. We do this by coordinating and managing all of the care they receive, including specialty care, community services and home healthcare services.

When looking at the Joint Commission PCMH model, there are five major components:

Patient Centeredness

Comprehensive

Coordinated

Access

Systems Based Approach to Quality and Safety
