INSURANCE COVERAGE & TREATMENT COST

Paying for Elective Procedures

At this time, insurance companies do not cover the regenerative procedures (Shockwave Therapy (ESWT) Prolotherapy, Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), or Medicinal Signaling Cell (MSC) procedures for the treatment of musculoskeletal conditions as they consider them to be experimental treatments. Additionally, insurance will not cover the cost of the specialized devices that are required to perform ultrasound-guided procedures, including percutaneous tenotomy, fasciotomy, carpal tunnel release, and trigger finger release. At your evaluation, you will be presented with alternative treatment methods that are offered outside of our clinic. However, if your decision is to receive the specialized ultrasound-guided procedures at our office, you will be responsible for the cost of the devices used.  

Please note, the fact that your insurance company will not pay for a particular procedure does not mean that you should not receive it. If one of these procedures is recommended it is because the physician deems it to be medically necessary in order to achieve the best outcomes for your diagnosis.

Because we are a medical office, you are able to use your FSA or HSA funds for any procedures at our office. We also accept cash, check, and all major credit cards. Additionally, we offer interest-free financing options through Care Credit. You can visit our Care Credit Page for more details.
