Direct Care Podiatry
Podiatry Without the Insurance Guesswork
Hammond Foot & Ankle is a direct care clinic, which means we don't bill your insurance company. Instead, you pay us directly at the time of your visit.
Why? It gives Dr. Hammond more time with you, more flexibility in creating your treatment plan, and the freedom to recommend the care he believes will genuinely help.
Have Insurance? That's Okay!
Most of our patients do, and that’s okay! We simply don’t bill it for you.
We’re more than happy to provide you with a ready-to-upload superbill to submit to your insurance company for possible out-of-network reimbursement from your insurance company.
All products and services here are HSA and FSA eligible.
Direct Care FAQs
Sometimes, but not always.
Direct care doesn’t mean every service will always be less expensive than using insurance. It means transparent pricing, fewer surprises, and the ability to make decisions about your care based on what you need, rather than what your insurance plan dictates.
With insurance, what you ultimately pay can depend on your deductible, copay, coinsurance, network, and specific plan benefits. In many cases, it can be difficult to know your actual out-of-pocket cost until after the claim is processed.
Direct care keeps it simple: you know exactly what your care will cost before you receive it.
Not here. You can book directly with our Provo podiatrist without a referral.
We often have same-day or next-day appointments available.
No, it's completely optional!
If you'd like to seek possible insurance reimbursement, we'll prepare one for you upon request.
Absolutely! Our services and products are eligible for HSA and FSA funds.
Some are, but many aren’t. That’s part of what makes direct care different.
We choose the services and treatments we offer based on what we believe can help you get the best results, rather than what your insurance company is likely to cover or reimburse you for.
