Bardsley Pediatric and Adolescent Endocrinology

No. The practice operates as a direct pay specialty care practice and does not accept or bill insurance for any services. Patients pay the practice directly. Labs and X-rays, however, are prescribed separately and processed through your insurance at the draw center or imaging facility.

The first visit is fee-for-service, charged at the new patient visit rate. A $25 registration fee applies upon enrollment. If Dr. Bardsley starts a medication or establishes ongoing care, the patient joins the monthly membership. The total monthly fee combines a base membership fee with a medical tier fee that Dr. Bardsley sets based on care intensity. Tier levels adjust over time to match changes in care needs.

Patients with intermittent or consultation-based needs who do not receive prescriptions pay on a fee-for-service basis. Non-members do not have access to ongoing communication, including text and email contact with the practice.

Reimbursement depends on your plan's out-of-network benefits, the insurance's allowed fee, and how much you have already applied toward your out-of-network deductible. Dr. Bardsley provides a claim form for new patient and fee-for-service visits upon request. Insurance claims are not available for monthly membership fees.

Yes. Dr. Bardsley provides televisits for patients who reside in or are physically present in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, or Delaware. The fee for a televisit is the same as an in-office visit. Some visits still require an in-person exam.

Bardsley Pediatric and Adolescent Endocrinology serves patients from newborn through approximately age 25. Dr. Bardsley may continue care for select patients beyond age 21 when the clinical situation closely resembles pediatric management.

No. Dr. Bardsley writes prescriptions for bloodwork that patients take to their preferred blood draw center. Patients should request that the draw center bill the lab fees through their insurance.

The practice uses AtlasMD, an electronic medical records system built for direct pay practices. It supports secure text and email communication, attachments, and photos. An iOS app allows patients to manage billing. Members receive a direct text number for Dr. Bardsley upon enrollment.
