Do I need VNUS if I have only mild GSV reflux?

Sep 17, 2012

You have to meet certain criteria in order for your insurance to cover this procedure. First of all, you must be symptomatic. Also, you need to have at least .5 sec reflux. The only reason to have this done at this point in time would be to prevent the formation of any further spider veins or reticular veins. It it is cosmetic and you would need to pay out of pocket for this. If you're not in a hurry, wait.
