Is the procedure covered by insurance?

Many medical plans cover IGTA, including radiofrequency ablation, microwave ablation and cryoablation when they are used in the liver, kidney and bone. However, given the rapid advances in this medical field, other areas may or may not be covered by your insurance.

We recommend that you discuss this in advance with your doctor and consult your health insurance provider. There are patient financial advocates available to you at Rhode Island Hospital to help you navigate insurance and billing issues.
