Cardiologist That Accepts Insurance in Houston, TX

Looking for an in-network cardiologist? Epic Heart & Vascular Center works with many commercial, Medicare Advantage and Medicaid plans at our Northwest Houston, Tomball and Sugar Land offices, and our team helps you check your coverage before your visit.

Care led by Dr. M. Usman Khan, MD, FACC · Page updated November 2026

Quick answer

Yes. We accept Medicare, Medicare Advantage plans, Marketplace plans, PPO and HMO plans, and commercial insurance. Insurers we work with include UnitedHealthcare, Aetna, Cigna, Humana, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, Oscar Health, Molina Healthcare and others, plus Medicare and Texas Medicaid. Plans and networks change, so call your nearest office or your insurer to confirm your specific plan before your visit.

Using your insurance for cardiology care

Seeing an in-network cardiologist keeps your costs predictable. What you pay depends on your plan’s specialist copay, your deductible and your coinsurance, not on our office. Before your first visit, it helps to know three things about your plan.

  • Is the practice in network? Ask your insurer whether Epic Heart & Vascular Center, and the office you will visit, are in network for your specific plan.
  • Do you need a referral? HMO and many Medicare Advantage and Medicaid plans require a referral from your primary care doctor. PPO plans usually do not.
  • Do tests need prior authorization? Some plans must approve tests such as stress tests, echocardiograms or heart monitors first. When that is needed, our team sends the request to your plan.

Plans we work with include UnitedHealthcare (UHC), Aetna, Cigna, Cigna HealthSpring, Humana, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas, Oscar Health, Imperial Health Plan, WellMed, Wellcare, Molina Healthcare, Community Health Choice, Amerigroup Texas, Superior HealthPlan, TriWest, Medicare, Railroad Medicare and Texas Medicaid.
