Will my insurance cover a Uterine Fibroid Embolization (UFE)?

 

Uterine Fibroid Embolization has been recognized as a medically necessary procedure, and because of this, insurance plans have been more accepting of covering the procedure.

“Yes, this is a medically necessary procedure for a multitude of reasons, and 20 years ago when the procedure was in its infancy it wasn’t covered, but now I think every insurance plan covers UFE.”

See Dr. Linda Hughes’ answer to this question.
