For our Medicare patients, we initially intended to be a non-participating provider. However, due to Medicare limitations, we were not able to accomplish this. Traditional Medicare patients are still able to participate in our Direct Care Model. Our existing Traditional Medicare patients will still be able to get the discounted prices mentioned above. 

 

Given that we opted out of Medicare, they will not reimburse for our office visits. Fortunately, you would still be able to use Traditional Medicare benefits for medication prescriptions, imaging tests, laboratory services, and Durable Medical Equipment (e.g. insulin pump, CGM, meters, test strips, and other supplies). This may not be true for Medicare Advantage plans. We strongly encourage patients to check coverage with their Medicare Advantage provider.
