INSURANCE INFORMATION

STEEL CITY DERMATOLOGY IS AN INDEPENDENT MEDICAL PRACTICE THAT SPECIALIZES IN DERMATOLOGY.

WHILE WE ACCEPT MANY INSURANCES (E.G. HIGHMARK, MEDICARE), IT IS DIFFICULT TO LIST WITH ACCURACY ALL OF THE INSURANCES WE ACCEPT & OUR NETWORK STATUS WITH EACH INSURER/PLAN - WE ARE IN AN ERA THAT HAS A VERY COMPLEX INSURANCE SYSTEM. THE MOST ACCURATE WAY TO DETERMINE OUR NETWORK STATUS (E.G. IN-NETWORK, PREFERRED), IS FOR PATIENTS AND/OR THEIR RESPONSIBLE PARTY TO OBTAIN THIS INFORMATION DIRECTLY FROM THEIR INSURER.

BELOW IS SOME GENERAL INFORMATION, THAT IS ACCURATE AS OF 15 FEBRUARY 2024 & IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE:

  • IT DEPENDS…

    IF YOU HAVE ONLY COMMERCIAL INSURANCE (E.G. UPMC NON-MEDICARE, NON-MEDICAID), YOU ARE ABLE TO RECIEVE CARE AT STEEL CITY DERMATOLOGY/YOU WOULD BE RESPONSBLE FOR THE COSTS OF THE CARE RECIEVED.

    IF YOU HAVE A MEDICARE PLAN, YOUR INSURANCE MUST BE USED FOR THE CARE PROVIED AT STEEL CITY DERMATOLOGY. IF YOU ARE INSURED BY A MEDICARE PLAN THAT WE DO NOT ACCEPT (E.G. UPMC MEDICARE), YOU ARE NOT ABLE TO RECEIVE CARE AT OUR PRACTICE, EVEN IF YOU ARE WILLING TO PAY FOR THE CARE YOURSELF.

    IF YOU ARE INSURED BY A MEDICAID PLAN, EVEN IF THE PLAN IS SECONDARY INSURANCE, THAT PERSON IS NOT ABLE TO RECIEVE CARE AT STEEL CITY DERMATOLOGY.

  • NO

  • COPAYMENTS AND CHARGES FROM COSMETIC CARE ARE DUE/REQUIRED TO BE PAID AT THE TIME OF SERVICE.
