Billing and Insurance
Do you accept my insurance?
We work with most large insurance carriers to bill our services. If you want to confirm whether we accept your insurance, please reach out directly to conciergemembership@mountsinai.org or call 646-819-5100 to discuss further.
If your membership is being sponsored by your employer, it has been confirmed that we are in-network or actively working to be in-network for the health insurance plan offered through your employer.
Will I have to pay anything the day of my visit?
Depending on your health insurance plan, you may owe a fixed dollar amount, or copay, the day of your visit. We accept payment via credit/debit card. We do not accept cash, check, or money orders.
For non-copay services or high deductible health plans, you will receive a bill for services at a later date.
I received a bill for services rendered at the health center. How do I pay it?
You can conveniently pay your bill online through the member portal, accessible via the 'Billing' section in the navigation menu, or opt for payment via phone or mail using the instructions provided on the bill.
I have Medicare, is my care covered?
We have providers who are enrolled with Medicare. However, we do recommend contacting us directly with questions about specific coverage.

How do I sign up for membership?
If your employer is sponsoring your Essential membership, you can activate your membership through our website or through our app on the Apple or Google Play store. Select “Sign up” and register using your work email. You will choose the “Employer-Sponsored Essential Membership” option. Once registration is complete, you can schedule an appointment and start your care.
If interested in a Premier or Pioneer concierge membership, you can apply for membership or contact us directly at conciergemembership@mountsinai.org to schedule a tour and discuss your options more in depth.
Can my spouse or dependent use the health center?
Premier members are allotted two guest passes annually that can be shared with family and friends to use services at our locations.
For employer-sponsored Essential members, your spouse or dependent is not eligible to use the health center without an individual membership. You may elect to purchase an individual membership for your spouse or dependent by following the instructions above to purchase membership. Spouses and dependents of our members are eligible to call the Health Navigation team at 646-819-5100, at no additional cost to you, for benefit questions and referral needs.
How do I renew my membership?
When you sign up, you will have the option to auto-renew after 12 months of membership. Should you opt out of the auto-renewal, you will receive a notification prior to the end of your membership term with the option to renew.
If your membership is sponsored by your employer, you do not need to renew your membership annually. Membership renewals are managed by your employer.
Can I use my FSA/HSA dollars to pay for my membership fee?
FSA reimbursement for the annual membership fee depends on your FSA and if they will allow it. We suggest you check with your FSA vendor directly to find out. If they do offer reimbursement, we can provide you with a membership receipt for processing. HSA dollars, however, are not eligible to be used toward the annual membership fee.
I have a membership through my employer. Will I still have access to Mount Sinai Doctors-Concierge Care if I leave my employer?
As your membership is sponsored by your employer, you would not be able to continue to access Mount Sinai Doctors-Concierge Care under your employer-sponsored membership after you leave, unless otherwise specified by your employer upon termination. However, we would be happy to speak with you about a self-sponsored Premier Membership, as well as provide you with your medical records should you choose to seek care elsewhere.
