MEDICAID AND MEDICARE SURGEONS LIST!

 Dr. Kolenic and Dr. Barkan from UPMC Horizon Bariatrics Surgery Center in Greenville Pa. takes the Medacare and Access. My cousin had hers there and she is on access

I had Dr. Monk. When I first called them in 2010, they did NOT take Gateway...... I don't know if that has changed, BUT I became Medicare eligible in May of 2011 and they took my insurance then. However, I did NOT have OPEN RNY. I had laproscopic RNY.

My name is Dorethea (reese) and i live in philadelphia Pa and my dr was in the elkins part of pPhiladelphia and they except Medicade(access Cards) i just need to find out if anyone knows if they do plastic surgery with it if anyone know  if they do please email me at [email protected] Thanks

I have insurance through the state - Amerihealth Mercy - and I had my lapband procedure performed by Richard Boorse MD who works at: General Surgical Associates 1240 S Cedar Crest Blvd Suite 208 Allentown, Pennsylvania 18103-6218 Phone: (610)439-4055 Fax: (610)439-8650

I had roux N Y surgery with Dr. Boorse at Lehigh 4 years ago, but  I was on medicare and it was covered.  Anyone who is contemplating bariatric surgery should consider him if their insurance permits.  He came highly recommended to me and I feel he is top notch.  Lehigh Hospital is also a fantastic place.

Hey, I had medicare with th e access card before switching to Keystone 65 complete. Temple Hospital is in Philadelphia, They are now a member of excellence and take medicare with the access card. it took over a year for that to happen with all the red tape bull crap. But I suggest if you are in the area and can go there, DO!!! the Dr.s and staff are the best in the area!! I was also told that Jefferson hospital takes medicare with the access card, also in Philadelphia, and the bariatric clinic in Langhorne takes it as far as I still know. that was 6 months ago. I still suggest Temple however, that is where I ended up going, It was my first choice and I waited for it. Well worth the wait. Temple is located on Broad street in North Philadelphia, Pa. the number is 215-707-3471 I believe they have 2 or 3 surgeons but my surgeons name is Dr. Meilhan They are all great there. best of luck Tammie
