As of October 29, 2009, we are also in network with CIGNA, MEDCOST, Primary Physician Care, Kanawha HealthCare Solutions and Select Health of South Carolina.

Your best bet is to call the office at 803-831-6500 and ask our staff if we are in network with your insurance carrier. During your first visit, we will take care of finding out all of your insurance details. 

Not in your network? There may be a reason Dr. Hartley has chosen not to be in your network. In many cases it is less expensive for a patient if Dr. Hartley is an out of network provider. Why? Because a patient often pays a flat 10%-20% if they go to a provider out of their network, which in our case would be $4-$8 for most people. However, if a patient goes to an in-network provider, they usually have a set co-pay of $10-$50.

We are always respectful of your finances and seek to find the best arrangement for you. Bottom line, we'll make sure you get the best care possible at a cost you can afford. No one is ever denied care based on their financial situation.
