• Are all vein treatments covered by insurance in Texas?

  Our vein clinics in Texas accept over 200 insurance plans, and we work with providers directly to ensure our patients receive the best possible coverage their plans can offer. There is a common misconception that varicose veins are merely a cosmetic issue. However, due to the progressive nature of vein disease, varicose vein treatment is considered a medical issue when coupled with symptoms such as heaviness, aching, pain or restless legs, and as such is often covered by insurance! At Metro Vein Centers, our insurance specialists handle all aspects of coverage from your plan, with over 97% of our varicose vein treatments ultimately covered by insurance. However, if you only have spider veins and do not have associated medical symptoms, spider vein treatment woudl be considered a cosmetic concern and would not be covered by insurance.

• What should I expect at my first visit with a Texas vein specialist?

  During your first visit with one of our vein doctors, you’ll undergo a physical examination and spend some time talking about your medical history and current symptoms. Be sure to tell your vein specialist about any leg swelling, pain, heaviness, tingling, or fatigue you have experienced, as these are important symptoms that may be related to your veins not pumping blood properly.

  During the physical exam, your doctor will examine your legs and any veins causing issues. They may also recommend an ultrasound scan to gain a better understanding of the condition of your veins under the surface. It’s recommended to stay hydrated before your exam and limit caffeine in order to get the most accurate ultrasound results. After reviewing all the information gathered during the ultrasound, your doctor will recommend the vein treatment options that they believe is best for you. If you choose to move forward with treatment, our team will handle all aspects of submitting your information for insurance approval and schedule your treatment session in a few weeks.
