      Watch out Military Veterans! for a scheme used by Aqua Medical Spa (aka: Cosmetic Dermatology of Florida circa August 2021). If you make an appointment for treatment of the disease Rosasea they will tell you it is not covered by Humana Military (Tricare) but, it certainly is--call Tricare yourself to confirm. Aqua will give you a treatment then switch the procedure to a cosmetic treatment and invoice you for $275 using their new company name so the contract between them and Humana Military does not apply. The company makes $37.60 more that way and they won't file an insurance claim or support your filing!

      Coding of medical procedures is performed according to specific insurance guidelines and all insurance claims are filed. The details of this procedure, including the fact that it is considered a cosmetic procedure and therefore not covered by this insurance carrier, was discussed in detail with the patient prior to treatment. Patient understood information provided and agreed to move forward with the procedure, including paying upon completion. Our coding and billing department reached out on multiple occasions explaining that we are required to code using strict guidelines provided by the insurance carrier, which we did in this case. Dermatology Specialists of FL & Aqua Medical Spa (both using the same tax ID number), have always supported our military community and will continue to do so.
