Out of Town Patients

At our Beverly Hills practice, Dr. Jeff Jumaily provides high-level facial procedures for patients traveling from across the U.S. and Canada. Many patients utilize large-group, employer-sponsored PPO plans with out-of-network benefits to access expert-level, medically indicated procedures such as Gender-Affirming Facial Feminization Surgery (FFS).

Our team is exceptionally skilled at navigating the complex world of out-of-network insurance. While we are not in-network with any plans, we work closely with select PPO carriers to secure prior authorizations, GAP Exceptions, Letters of Agreement (LOAs), and or Single Case Agreements (SCAs) when applicable. This includes successful coordination with major carriers, including, but not limited to:

• Premera Blue Cross
• Blue Cross Blue Shield of Illinois
• Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts
• Blue Cross Blue Shield of Texas
• Select Anthem PPO plans

Insurance logistics are ever-evolving and often overwhelming, especially when seeking specialized care across state lines. Our in-house team excels at managing the nuances of this process, ensuring patients receive accurate information, timely documentation, and comprehensive support from consultation to reimbursement.

Traveling for Surgery: What to Expect

Many of our patients come to Beverly Hills after being denied access to specialized care in their home states. Whether seeking gender-affirming facial surgery or post-weight loss rejuvenation, our team is here to make your surgical journey more seamless, informed, and empowering.

Insurance Use

We frequently work with patients who carry large-group, employer-sponsored PPO insurance plans that include out-of-network benefits for medically necessary care. Our in-house team assists with eligibility verification, preauthorization, and preparing detailed documentation required for claim submissions.

We’ve successfully coordinated with:

• Premera Blue Cross
• Blue Cross Blue Shield (Illinois, Texas, Massachusetts)
• Select Anthem PPO plans

Many PPO plans provide partial or full reimbursement when documentation is complete and properly submitted. We help make that process as smooth and transparent as possible.

Specialized Procedures for Out-of-State Patients

Gender-Affirming Facial Surgery

Dr. Jumaily is internationally recognized for his expertise in Facial Feminization and Masculinization Surgery. Each procedure is customized to your anatomy and identity, with a sensitive balance of form and function, addressing the brow, jawline, chin, nose, and hairline.

Facial Rejuvenation After Weight Loss

Significant weight loss can cause laxity and hollowing in the face. We offer both subtle and comprehensive solutions tailored to your needs:

• Mini-Lift

A less invasive option for early jowling and mild laxity—ideal for patients seeking natural refinement with a shorter recovery.

• Deep Plane Face and Neck Lift

A more advanced technique for correcting sagging, deep folds, and volume loss. Especially effective for patients with significant aging or post-weight loss changes.

Your Dedicated Surgical Advisor

From your first inquiry to your final follow-up, you’ll have a team of dedicated patient advisors who oversee your surgical journey, managing insurance logistics, travel planning, and surgical coordination every step of the way.

Our extended team also provides:

• PPO insurance verification, preauthorization, and SCA/LOA negotiation
• Travel and accommodation logistics/recommendations 
• Pre-operative education and post-operative support 

Dr. Jumaily remains personally involved throughout your care—you won’t be passed between staff. Every patient receives direct, thoughtful communication and attentive support.

New Consultation Process: Streamlined Patient Applications

To reduce delays and optimize your experience, we now require a brief application before booking a consultation. This allows us to:

• Understand your goals and medical history in advance
• Begin any necessary insurance coordination
• Maximize the value of your first consultation

This process is especially beneficial for those planning to use insurance, as it helps ensure clear communication and minimizes surprises later on.

Financial Planning & Tax Considerations

We support patients in navigating both direct payment and reimbursement strategies. This includes:

• PPO out-of-network benefit use
• Itemized medical billing and insurance documentation
• HSA/FSA compatibility
• Third-party financing plans when needed

Certain medically necessary procedures (such as those for treating gender dysphoria), that are excluded from your insurance plan may also qualify as tax-deductible. While we don’t provide tax advice, we can help ensure your documentation is organized and ready for your accountant.
