US Patient Insurance Information
Some of our patients have had success in securing reimbursement for their HIFU procedure. Many policies differ in their details, however, so it should be noted that past success with a particular company does not guarantee future results with the same company.
U.S. patients who only have Medicare or Medicaid should know that these two agencies do not reimburse for procedures performed outside of the United States. Patients who have any other insurance plans, including secondary plans or other government plans, could potentially be approved.
We are aware of nearly 100 patients with coverage from 46 different insurance companies (listed in the table below) who have received full or partial reimbursement for HIFU. All instances of reimbursement have occurred following the procedure. To date, there have been no pre-approvals prior to treatment.
Insurance companies that have reimbursed for at least a portion of HIFU treatment expenses:
Aetna Anthem BCBS in Indiana Anthem BCBS in Missouri Anthem BCBS in Nevada Anthem BCBS in Ohio Anthem BCBS in Wisconsin Anthem Health Plans of Maine Anthem Health Plans of New Hampshire BCBS of Arizona BCBS of California BCBS of Colorado BCBS of Connecticut BCBS of Florida BCBS of Georgia BCBS of Iowa BCBS of Kansas BCBS of Kentucky BCBS of Maryland BCBS of Massachusetts BCBS of Michigan BCBS of Minnesota BCBS of New Jersey BCBS of North Carolina |
BCBS of Oklahoma |
