Conditions and Procedures FAQ
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.
They may not have the expertise, experience, or desire in treating certain conditions or procedures, even if it falls within their specialty.
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."
