You can always call the clinic or COMC’s main office @ 1-877-406-2662 and follow the prompts to the billing department if you have specific questions about payment.
Will signing up mean that we can’t use our family doctor? If we have a family doctor, do we need these services?
The clinic is not meant to replace your child’s provider. However, if you have a provider, you may still use the school services. You may find it convenient for your child to receive care if they get sick or injured at school, participate in screenings, or to receive other services. It can provide additional services to help children avoid missing school and to help you, as a parent/guardian, manage your child’s care.
Can I choose whether my child will receive services, and if so, can I select which services my child may use?
YES. The clinic will always contact you prior to any treatment your child receives to obtain your permission. Parents are always encouraged to contact the staff with questions or concerns and to be present during their child’s healthcare visit.
Will my child’s medical information be kept confidential?
YES. Your child’s health information will be treated with strict confidentiality. By signing the consent form you may give the health clinic staff and school nurses permission to communicate and share medical information regarding your child’s medical condition on a needed bases with the understanding that this information will continue to be treated in a confidential manner. Otherwise, it is your responsibility to notify the school of any medication, allergies or medical problems that may affect your child during school.
