Insurance Coverage

Does Insurance Cover My Vein Treatment?

When patients come to Physicians Vein Clinics, they often ask if insurance will pay for their vein treatment. In many cases, insurance will help pay for the treatment of veins as long as the veins are symptomatic. The most common symptoms are leg pain, aching, heaviness, fatigue, swelling, cramping, and even restless legs. In addition, most insurance companies require that these symptoms are affecting your Activities of Daily Living (ADLs), such as your ability to work, sleep, exercise, perform household chores, or participate in leisure activities.

Many insurance companies may require you to do what is called conservative therapy. These include daily exercise, taking anti-inflammatories and wearing graduated compression stockings. The companies vary in the length of time that you are required to complete conservative vein treatment. Some companies will allow us to start improving your vein symptoms once we have completed documentation, others will require that you do conservative therapy for up to 3 months.

We will work with your insurance company to make sure we have completed all paperwork and conservative therapy so that you qualify for vein treatment under your insurance plan. While we accept Medicare and many major insurance plans, please note that we do not accept Medicaid in Pennsylvania. We also work with select healthcare sharing programs, including Medi-Share.
