The Emory Movement Disorders Center accepts most insurance plans. You should bring your insurance card with you to your appointments.
Please call in advance of your appointment to determine if your insurance carrier is contracted with us. You will be responsible for any charges not covered by your carrier. If you prefer to file yourself, we will provide the paperwork necessary for reimbursement and ask for payment by you at the time of the appointment.

If you are covered by managed care, we request co-pays and deductibles at the time of the appointment.
