Outpatient care refers to medical services that are provided at a medical facility without the patient having to stay overnight in a hospital. As outpatient services are the most common form of medical care, most insurance plans have an outpatient insurance coverage. This covers all, if not most, outpatient consultations and treatments. You may also be eligible for panel direct billing, in which your bills will be sent to your insurance provider directly.
Furthermore, personal accident insurance plans may cover certain aspects of outpatient care. Depending on your coverage, these accident plans can be utilised if you are suffering from a hand/wrist injury as a result of an accident or trauma.
Ultimately, it is best to check with your insurance agent on the coverage policies that you hold.

A hand surgeon is a specialist devoted to hand care, and is specially trained to diagnose and treat all problems related to the hand, wrist, and forearm. Not all problems treated by a hand surgeon require surgery. Instead, non-surgical treatments, such as medication, splints, therapy, and injections are often recommended.
