Frequently Asked Cost Questions
How much does a podiatry visit cost in Columbus, Ohio?+
The cost of a podiatry visit depends on your insurance plan, the complexity of your condition, and whether any in-office procedures are performed. With insurance, most patients pay only their specialist copay ($25-$60 is common). Uninsured patients should call us directly for self-pay rates - we offer transparent flat pricing. Call (614) 328-5561 for details.
How much does bunion surgery cost?+
Bunion surgery (including minimally invasive bunionectomy) is typically covered by insurance when it is medically necessary - causing pain, difficulty walking, or shoe-fitting problems. Your out-of-pocket cost depends on your deductible and coinsurance. We will provide a pre-authorization estimate before any elective procedure so there are no surprises.
Does Medicare cover foot care?+
Medicare Part B covers medically necessary foot care, including treatment of conditions related to diabetes, peripheral vascular disease, and neuropathy. Routine nail care (trimming) is covered every 61 days if you have a qualifying systemic condition. Custom orthotics, X-rays, and most office procedures are covered when medically indicated. Dr. Golan is a Medicare-participating provider.
How much do custom orthotics cost without insurance?+
Custom foot orthotics fabricated from 3D scans and clinical biomechanical assessment range in cost depending on materials and construction. Many insurance plans - including Medicare - cover custom orthotics when medically necessary. Call our office for current self-pay pricing on orthotics.
Is laser treatment for toenail fungus covered by insurance?+
Fungal nail laser treatment is classified as cosmetic by most insurers when the concern is purely cosmetic (discoloration, thickness). However, when toenail fungus is causing pain, secondary infection, or ingrown nails, treatment coverage improves significantly. We'll review your plan before treatment.
Can I get a payment plan for podiatry care?+
Yes. For larger out-of-pocket balances, we can discuss payment arrangements. We also provide detailed superbills that uninsured or out-of-network patients can submit to their insurance for potential reimbursement. Call us at (614) 328-5561 to discuss your situation.
Are there hidden fees I should know about?+
No. We believe in transparent billing. Before any procedure, we'll tell you what's covered, what may not be, and what your estimated out-of-pocket cost will be. We verify your insurance benefits before your visit so you arrive knowing what to expect.
