Note: Hirsch Pediatrics does not participate with any state insurance or Medicaid plans.
Note: If your insurance plan requires you to designate a primary care physician (“PCP”), you must select our office prior to your first visit. If Dr. Hirsch is not designated as the PCP prior to the first visit, you may incur extra costs if the insurance company processes the claim as an out-of-network visit.
Hirsch Pediatrics also offers affordable and transparent fees for uninsured and out-of-network families. Click this link for self-pay information.
Will my child’s check-up require a copay or deductible?
Fortunately the majority of insurances will fully cover your child’s regularly scheduled check-ups. At your child’s check-up, Hirsch Pediatrics will ensure that all recommended preventive services and screening tests are completed according to the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Bright Futures guidelines. This includes vaccinations, developmental/mental health screening, hearing and vision exams, and screening lab tests. Even though these services are recommended by the AAP, some insurances will require an additional copay or deductible for these additional recommended services. If you want to confirm coverage with your insurance before the check-up, Hirsch Pediatrics is happy to provide you with a list of the recommended preventive services and screening tests that your child will receive.
In addition, when your child’s check-up is combined with another “non-check-up” visit at the same time your insurance may require an additional co-pay or deductible. The most common double visits are when your child comes in for a check-up but also has their ADD/depression medications discussed or refilled and when your child comes in for a sick visit but is overdue for a check-up and we are able to add in a check-up at the same time.
For over a decade, we’ve been consistently thrilled with the medical service Dr. Hirsch provides to our two children. The office staff and assistants are wonderful. He recently added mental health support services to the practice as well…. great idea!
We started seeing Dr. Hirsch in 2021 with our newborn son. The office staff was friendly and responsive, there was never any wait to see a provider and Dr. Hirsch provided helpful, clear advice. They also were incredibly organized with regular covid testing that was needed at the time.
Dr. Hirsch was extremely responsive when we would message him using the portal – which was such a relief since we were anxious new parents. We ended up moving out of the area and miss this practice so much! Highly recommend this office!
One of the best practices I’ve experienced in DC. The doctors are kind, compassionate and answer questions thoroughly and clearly. They also have great resources and the team is incredibly responsive. I’m so happy we picked them and would recommend them to anyone seeking a pediatrician.
They are amazing! All of the doctors are very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. All of our questions were answered very quickly via call, patient portal messages or emergency line. The bi-weekly zoom meetings for new parents are very helpful too.
