Does Dr. Lepor take my insurance?
Dr. Lepor does not participate with any managed care company nor does he accept Medicare. Many individuals enroll in a PPO policy which enables them to select a specialist who does not participate with their plan. In these cases, their insurance provider pays a significant portion of the usual and customary fees. Dr. Lepors surgical fees are at the usual and customary level for the overwhelming majority of providers. Therefore, if you have out of network benefits, your insurance plan will cover the overwhelming majority of the surgical fees and costs associated with your hospitalization. The reason you pay a premium is to have out-of-network benefits. With your PPO you have the opportunity to seek your medical care with experts who often dont participate with insurance plans. If you fail to use your out of network benefits, you should seriously consider joining an HMO so that your premiums are at a minimum.
