Hello, can you please share your Dr that accepts Amerigroup Medicad

Hi Rian,

I realize this is a couple of years late. But I just came on this board and came across your question. To Answer that yes, my surgeon does take Medicare patients. And I wasn't asked to pay anything up front from him or his office.

But I have Humana Medicare Advantage and they covered 100 % of the surgery. And I too am on SSDI

The only bill I still owe is my $325.00 copay towards the hospital. But You can ask for a Patients Assistants Program and that will cover the copay.

If you don't have Humana, I don't know what your insurance is willing to cover?

I prefer Humana because they are real good at coverage and with prescription coverage too.

Anyhow the surgeon I use is with Capital Surgeon's Group and his name is Dr. Tim Faulkenberry. This is in Austin, Texas

Their number is 512-334-1885

Good luck to you, God bless you, Lynn Kaune

Batwingsman, hang with us for Houston 2021! I was at all of the other Texas events except for in 2004 and they were awesome, so I am hugely disappointed as well! With the extra prep time we have now (not that we had a choice), we will be working extra hard so the next one is super fantastic, and be making sure the swag bags are something to behold!

See you there!
