If you are a patient who would like to be referred for possible surgery, please contact the Fetal Therapy Coordinator at 305-585-6636 or 305-243-8771. The coordinator will fax an evaluation form to your doctor to complete and return to us. This information will be needed to determine the best treatment. Dr. Ruben Quintero or Dr. Eftichia Kontopoulos will review your records. Your doctor’s office will be contacted with our recommendation.

All ultrasound reports, prenatal records and insurance information will be requested. One of our physicians will review your medical records and determine how to proceed.Our office will begin the insurance process. We will notify you as soon as the insurance company informs us that this is/is not a covered benefit.

The hospital policy, at this time, requires total payment prior to surgery if your insurance company does not cover the procedure. Additional charges will be incurred from the anesthesiologist and pathologist and billed separately. If your insurance reimburses at a later date, your money will be refunded. Approximately 90% of the insurance companies cover the surgeries.

Once financial clearance is obtained, your appointment will be scheduled. A Jackson Memorial Hospital Concierge representative will contact you to give you instructions on how to get to the hospital and where to park.
