Pre-Register as a New Patient or Log-In as an established patient:
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical services and laboratory fees.
• Your health care provider must give you a Good Faith Estimate in writing for scheduled services in the designated timeframes. You can also ask your health care provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call Meridian Family Medicine at (208)888-1199.

Here at Meridian Family Medicine, we support childhood immunizations. We recognize the vital role vaccinations play in safeguarding the health of your children. Getting your child vaccinated not only helps protect your child, it also helps protect others in your community—like your friend who cannot get certain vaccines, or your neighbor’s new baby who is too young to be fully vaccinated. When everyone who can get vaccinated does get vaccinated, it helps to prevent the spread of disease within a community.
While we encourage childhood immunizations, we also recognize and respect a parent’s right to make choices regarding your child’s healthcare. Our hope is to provide information and answer questions to help you make a good decision for you and your child. We strive to partner with you in your child’s care, without judgment and with sound reasoning.
Please approach any of our providers or clinical staff with questions you may have regarding immunizations. They want to help you make an informed and appropriate decision for your child. We have also provided a schedule of recommended immunizations based upon age. In a partnership with Idaho, we offer all recommended childhood immunizations in a safe, friendly environment.
Meridian Family Medicine is currently accepting new patients under the age of 60.
Please prepare for your Appointment:
- Verify Insurance Eligibility - please contact your insurance to verify in-network status. See below for more information regarding insurances we no longer accept.
