Hi there.
Does anyone know which hospitals in Washington, D.C. offer cardiac ultrasounds and renal artery Doppler scans?
I did a little digging online and I think they might be available at the main city hospital or maybe out in a suburb... but I'm not entirely sure.
Does anyone have an idea of what the rough cost would be if you don't have Medicare coverage?
Thanks

Thanks.
If anyone here has some experience with this, especially if you're a dual citizen, please feel free to reach out.

Maybe he should just give them a call to be safe? I bet they'll tell him exactly what needs doing if anything has changed.

Of course, but I was hoping to save some time by asking here.
Does anyone have a similar story or experience? We all know how our healthcare system works...🙂

And you really need to look up how to actually use your coverage on the Medicare website.

Go ahead and hit Google again...

I know, it was just a slip of the tongue I didn't catch in time, but the search isn't the issue here. I was already browsing the Medicare site, but I decided to look for some specific info without getting too bogged down in the details.
Thanks.

Just a quick question, since I couldn't find a straight answer online.
A friend of mine moved to Mexico during the war because his parents were getting divorced. He just moved back recently (he has American papers), but he doesn't have a Medicare card yet. What kind of process would he need to go through to get one set up?
