Insurance for Abdominal Transplants

Solid organ transplantation has continued to evolve over the last 50 years. Because of the increasing success of transplantation for patients, most major insurance companies, as well as Medicare and Medicaid, now accept transplantation as a standard procedure. For patients, this means that a majority of the cost of transplantation will be covered.

The comprehensive transplant program at UMC has a dedicated team of transplant financial coordinators who will help you through the process of transplantation. They will meet with you prior to transplant to answer any financial questions that you may have. They will work with both you and your insurance company to ensure your transplant experience runs smoothly.

If you are an abdominal (kidney, liver, pancreas, intestinal, islet cell) transplant patient who wants to speak to a transplant financial specialist, please call (520) 694-7364.
