“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.

I am grateful for Stan Hatmaker, as he himself took call for my nephew Neil going to Chattanooga to bring him home, then not long ago, Stan, himself came to transport my beloved older Brother Jimmy, who was treated like royalty same as Stan stood by my family in the passing of our beloved Mother, Angeline Davis Carroll. Stan Hatmaker and his staff go above and beyond providing the best care for our beloveds, even when no one is watching, they offer the same loving care to everyone, rich or poor. GOD bless Stan Hatmaker, Tyler & Britney, rest of staff (Miss our Christa) for all they do to comfort as they care for our beloveds, our community and surrounding areas in the deepest time of needs, the passing of a loved one.
