Before you book

This list comes from Medicare's enrollment records, not from reviews. Call the office to confirm the clinician is taking new Medicare patients. With Original Medicare, a clinician who accepts assignment can only charge you the Medicare deductible and coinsurance; one who doesn't may charge up to 15% more than the Medicare-approved amount. If you have a Medicare Advantage plan, check that the clinician is in the plan's network.

Enrollment, addresses and scores are as reported to CMS and can change. This is not a list of in-network providers for any Medicare Advantage plan, and it is not medical advice.
