    To Whom It May Concern,

    My name is **** ****** and I started as the CEO at Mt. Sinai Wellness Center on July 18th, 2024.  Pursuant to HIPAA and 42 CFR Part 2, I am unable to confirm or deny the past or current presence of any person in treatment.  That being said, I can speak to generalities about our billing practices.  

    The majority of people presenting to treatment utilize their health insurance at Mt. Sinai Wellness Center.  As part of treatment, services that Mt. Sinai Wellness Center does not provide, such as lab and pharmacy services, are provided by 3rd parties.  **************** covers these services.  On occasion, people present for treatment and choose to pay privately.  When this happens, the cost is inclusive of any lab or pharmacy needs.  Unfortunately, at times either of these services bills the patient directly instead of Mt. Sinai Wellness.  When this happens, the financial services department at Mt. Sinai Wellness Center works with the 3rd party to correct the bill and provide written proof both to the patient and for the patient's financial record at Mt. Sinai Wellness Center.  Unfortunately, this can often take longer to work out with the 3rd party than is desired.
