As each insurance policy is different, we are not able to tell you definitively what your plan does or does not cover. If you have any questions about your benefits, please contact your insurance company to confirm what services are covered and what your copayment will be at the time of service.

At Peak Pediatrics, we aim to make communication simple and seamless with options that work for you. We recommend using the Spruce app for secure messaging with our office staff and Dr. Hansen.

See our How to Reach Us page for the quickest way to contact our team during business hours and when the office is closed.

To limit germ-sharing between our sick and well patients, our waiting room is currently designated for families who are being seen for a preventive or other non-contagious visit. Please arrive no more than ten minutes prior to your appointment. 

If you are coming to the office for a sick visit, please call us when you arrive to check-in from your car. We will ask you to wait in your car until called into a patient room via our side entrance.

Please submit refill requests through the patient portal or by calling your pharmacy several days prior to running out of your prescription. Allow 48 hours for refills to be processed. We may also contact you to schedule a visit to review and discuss your child’s health and medications.

Please send a message through the patient portal or call the office at 508-576-5010 and leave a message on our referral line. Leave the following information:

• Child’s name and date of birth
• Name and location of the doctor for whom you need a referral
• Doctor’s NPI number (available from the receptionist at the specialist’s office)
• Date of the appointment
• The reason for the visit

Please indicate if you need us to send any information about your child, including office visit notes and labs, to this doctor prior to your appointment. 

Allow 48 hours for all referral requests to be processed.

School and sports forms can be printed through the patient portal. Please send us a portal message if you have any difficulty accessing your child’s form.

Our patient portal is a convenient, secure online tool to access your medical information and reach your doctor and their team, without the hassle of playing phone tag. Our office will create an account for you. You can access the portal through our website to:

• Access your medical record
• Access lab results
• Request medication refills
• Request non-urgent appointments
• Get non-urgent medical advice from your doctor
• Print medical clearance forms such as those needed for school, sports, and camps

For more information on using the patient portal, please see the User’s Guide

We no longer require all patients and staff to wear a mask in the office. We do require certain sick visits to wear a mask along with the staff in the room with them. This includes all respiratory symptoms.

We accept Visa, Mastercard, and American Express. Payments can also be made by cash or check.

Payments can be made in your patient portal or by visiting our Make a Payment page.

It’s easy: As part of our commitment to making it easy to manage your family’s medical care, we offer the option of keeping a credit card on file to make payment quick and seamless. Pay easily without having to corral your children in the waiting room again, and leave your appointment knowing that you won’t have to deal with—or remember to pay—a bill in the mail that comes after the fact.

It’s secure: Your credit card information is stored securely with our payment processing vendor, not in our computer system.

No surprises: You may ask to review any bill before processing, and we automatically confirm payment for all charges over $200, so you won’t have to worry about unexpected charges.

Copayment is required at the time of your appointment and will be collected when you are checking in. A missed copay fee may be charged for copays not paid within 24 hours of the appointment.

Please contact our billing department at (508) 576-5976 or by messaging on the Spruce app.

Appointments canceled, rescheduled, or missed without at least 24 hours’ notice are considered missed appointments. After the first no-show without any notice, we will issue a warning. Any subsequent no-shows will incur a $40 missed appointment fee. However, if you notify us in advance that you cannot attend, no fee will be charged.

We track missed appointments, and families with three missed appointments within a 12-month period may be dismissed from the practice.
