Our Pediatrician is considered out of network and does not take insurance for any physician related fees. We value the Direct, Personal and High Quality care we provide your child. When insurance dictates how a pediatric practice is run, care tends to be rushed, impersonal and access to the pediatrician is limited.

Yes! Your membership is not a substitute of your insurance. We strongly recommend families to have insurance coverage for services we are unable to provide, like specialist care, hospitalizations, accidents, and emergencies. Insurance is also helpful in covering vaccine costs, outside laboratory services, and X-ray or imaging services. If you have a high-deductible plan, where you may end up paying out-of-pocket for most doctor visits, see if a membership with Pediatric Pod Concierge Pediatrics would offer greater value for your investment. If you are a member of a health sharing ministry or medical cost sharing community, check if our monthly membership is eligible for sharing. Even if it is not, you may find our membership provides more value than paying out of pocket at a traditional insurance practice. If you do not have insurance, we can assist you in finding lower-cost options for services we do not cover.
Tips on Insurance: We suggest choosing a high deductible insurance plan or PPO plan, this will allow us to coordinate your care best and you will not need referrals for specialists. HMO plans may refuse to pay for any services or prescriptions not ordered by an in-network physician.

Yes, we currently have openings in our practice. However, in order to provide personalized care to each patient, our space is limited. Once the practice reaches capacity, families will be placed on a wait-list and notified when a spot becomes available.

Yes, and we work through a 3rd-party vendor (Vaxcare and VFC) that allows us to accept most insurances for vaccines. Cash pay vaccines are also available.
We have a strict vaccine policy and all vaccines are administered based on the AAP guidelines.

In house labs (Rapid strep, Rapid Flu, Urine analysis), Immunization administration fees, Newborn screens done in the office and nebulizer treatments are not included in the membership. Any out-of-office procedures, labs, or medical services from other medical providers such as specialist visits and in-patient hospitalizations are also not covered in membership and will be billed to your insurance by those providers.

Children admitted to the hospital are taken care of by inpatient hospitalists, who are experts in hospital-based care.

We specialize in personal and intimate relationships with our patients and parents. In knowing the child’s medical history, long-distance care, and virtual (Telehealth) visits can be utilized.

We will do our best to notify families in advance of any planned absences. Dr. Khanum may still be available via email, phone, and text during her absence. In the event that she is not available via these communication outlets during her absence, or if your child requires a sick in-office visit, Dr. Khanum will try to arrange a covering physician or your child will need to go to the urgent care.
