Appointment Cancellation Policy
Effective October 1, 2026
Orthopaedic Associates of Manhasset strives to provide each patient with the highest quality of care while attempting to accommodate your schedule. We realize that emergencies and other scheduling conflicts arise and are sometimes unavoidable; however, advance notification allows us to offer your time to another patient who is in need of services.
Clinical Appointments
- Please cancel or reschedule appointments at least 24 hours in advance. Missed appointments or appointments cancelled or rescheduled with less than 24 hours’ notice may incur a $75 fee. This fee is not covered by insurance and is the patient’s responsibility.
Physical and Occupational Therapy
- OAM physical therapy patients must provide 24 hours’ notice to change or cancel an appointment. Patients who do not arrive for a scheduled appointment or do not provide 24 hours’ notice to change an appointment will be charged a $75 cancellation fee. This charge cannot be billed to insurance and must be paid on or before the next appointment.
- If you arrive 15 minutes late for your visit, your appointment may need to be modified or canceled and the 24-hour cancellation policy will apply.
- Your treatment plan is designed to get you back to your regular activities as quickly as possible. Missing appointments may impede that process and prolong your recovery.
