Conditions and Procedures FAQ
- What is treatment frequency? And why is it so important?
-
Treatment frequency is how often a provider performs or treats a specific procedure/condition compared to other doctors. It's important to understand a doctor’s treatment frequency to help make an informed decision on which provider you want to treat your condition or have to perform a specific procedure.
- Why doesn’t a provider cover a condition or procedure in their specialty?
-
They may not have the expertise, experience, or desire in treating certain conditions or procedures, even if it falls within their specialty.
- Why doesn’t my insurance provider cover a condition or procedure?
-
Health insurance providers might not cover a specific condition or procedure because it doesn't fall within their coverage plan. When determining what to cover, providers will use criteria of what they deem as "medically necessary."
