Vein Treatment Varicose Veins Laser Lipo & Vein Care Center Ask the Doctor

Could some or all of the cost of sclerotherapy be covered by my provider?

It depends on what type of vein is being treated: Bigger veins that are symptomatic might be covered by an insurance company; smaller asymptomatic spider veins generally are not.

It also depends on the individual benefits of the insurance plan you have. Policies regarding vary depending on the insurance company.

Finally, sometimes it depends on whether the sclerotherapy treatment is done as part of a larger treatment plan that includes treatment of the saphenous vein. Our experience has been that insurance does not cover any sclerotherapy unless it is completed following an endovenous laser procedure.
