General Practitioners

• Arthritis
  Plaquenil is a medication used to treat lupus, rheumatoid arthritis and other inflammatory and dermatologic conditions. Extended use of Plaquenil can damage the central vision and cause permanent vision loss if not detected early. If the patient does not have any special risk factors, annual screening is recommended after 5 years. The goal of monitoring patients on plaquenil is to detect any damage to the retina in the earliest stages.
• Emergency Care
  When you get emergency care or get treated by an out-of-network provider at an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, you are protected from surprise billing or balance billing.

Radiologist

• Ultrasound
  At Ocean Ophthalmology, our physicians perform no-stitch, micro-incisional cataract surgery. This technique utilizes ultrasound technology to fragment and remove your cataract. After the cataract is removed, an appropriate intraocular lens (IOL) is selected and injected through the small, 2-3mm corneal incision. This surgery is performed on an outpatient basis, usually in less than 15 minutes, and patients return home the same day a couple of hours after the procedure.
• Radiology
  When you get services from an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, certain providers there may be out-of-network. In these cases, the most those providers may bill you is your plan’s in-network cost-sharing amount. This applies to emergency medicine, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, laboratory, neonatology, assistant surgeon, hospitalist, or intensivist services. These providers can’t balance bill you and may not ask you to give up your protections not to be balance billed.
