FAQs - BILLING

WHAT INSURANCE DO YOU ACCEPT?

Zimmet Vein & Dermatology is an "out of network provider" for most insurance companies. This means you can mail our invoice to your insurance for possible coverage. You may wish to call your insurance company and review your "out of network" policy.

Insurance companies will only consider coverage for treatments that they consider "medically necessary." We will be glad to write a letter of medical necessity supporting your request for authorization or reimbursement. However, many services (such as spider vein treatment) are considered cosmetic.

WHAT DO YOU CHARGE FOR YOUR SERVICES?

This varies based on the service and on what is being treated. Please call our office at (512) 485-7700 to discuss pricing.

WHAT TYPE OF PAYMENTS DO YOU ACCEPT?

For your convenience, we accept checks, MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover. We also offer "package" pricing for certain procedures such as FotoFacial, microdermabrasion, Botox® and GentleWaves.

We also offer CareCredit, a leader in patient financing offering 3, 6 and 12 month no interest and 24, 36, 48 and 60 month extended payment plans. Submitting applications can be done through their website or you can call our office (512-485-7700) and we can help with the process.

DO YOU ACCEPT MEDICARE?

Dr. Zimmet voluntarily "opted out" of the Medicare system. If you are a Medicare patient, we will ask you to review and sign a document stipulated by Medicare. The terms of coverage are regulated and governed by Medicare, and state that you agree not to file your claim with them. Please call our office should you have questions about the "opt out" status.
