At Salame Heart & Vascular Clinic, we understand that patients may have questions regarding their rights and eligibility for refunds related to services rendered. Our clinic specializes in providing high-quality cardiovascular care, and while we aim to meet all patient needs, there are specific scenarios where refunds may be applicable. Refund eligibility is determined based on the nature of the service and the individual circumstances surrounding each case.

• Pre-Paid Services: If you have pre-paid for a specific procedure and it was rescheduled or canceled by the clinic, you may qualify for a refund of the amount paid, based on our cancellation policy.
• Insurance Coverage Issues: Should there be a situation where your insurance provider denies coverage for a service you received, and you have paid out-of-pocket, you may be eligible for a refund of the payments made to the clinic if the situation qualifies under our billing guidelines.
• Account Overpayments: If an overpayment was made for services due to adjustments or billing clarifications, our clinic may process a refund for the amount in excess of the actual charges once verified.
• Consultation Sobriety: Should you have concerns about the results or necessity of a consultative procedure, you may inquire about refund possibilities based on the specific terms discussed during your appointment.

It is important to note that all requests for refunds are subject to review, and eligibility will be assessed based on the clinic’s policies and practices. We are committed to ensuring a clear understanding of your rights and available options in any billing situation that may arise.
