What if my insurance is not listed or I do not have insurance?
If UT Health Austin is not a participating provider, you may still be able to receive treatment. Contact your insurance company and ask about obtaining authorization. It is important to note that some benefit plans utilize what are referred to as “narrow” or “limited” networks; that is, they further narrow or limit the choices of doctors and hospitals that their customers can use. Additionally, some plans require a primary care physician referral and/or other authorization guidelines.
