Care led by Dr. M. Usman Khan, MD, FACC · Page updated November 2026
Quick answer
Yes, we accept Medicare and Texas Medicaid. We work with traditional Medicare, Railroad Medicare and several Medicare Advantage plans, including Humana, WellMed, Wellcare and Cigna HealthSpring, and with Texas Medicaid managed-care plans such as Molina Healthcare, Community Health Choice, Amerigroup Texas and Superior HealthPlan. Medicare Advantage and Medicaid plans often need a referral, so call us or your plan to confirm before your visit.
Medicare Part B covers medically necessary specialist visits and outpatient diagnostic tests, such as an ECG, echocardiogram or stress test. After you meet the yearly Part B deductible, you generally pay 20% of the Medicare-approved amount, and a Medigap or secondary plan may cover some or all of that. Traditional Medicare does not require a referral to see a cardiologist.
Medicare Advantage plans are run by private insurers and have their own networks and rules. Many require a referral from your primary care doctor and prior approval for some tests. We work with several Advantage plans, including Humana, WellMed, Wellcare and Cigna HealthSpring. Check that your specific plan lists our practice.
Most Texas Medicaid members are enrolled in a managed-care plan. We work with Texas Medicaid and plans such as Molina Healthcare, Community Health Choice, Amerigroup Texas and Superior HealthPlan. Medicaid plans usually require a referral from your primary care provider before a specialist visit.
If you have both (dual eligible), Medicare usually pays first and Medicaid may help with the remaining costs. Bring both cards to your visit.
