Medicare Supplement plans (Medigap coverage) overview. Medicare Supplement (also known as MedSup or Medigap) coverage, is health insurance sold by private insurance companies to fill the âgapsâ in Medicare Part A and Part B coverage.
Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is a minimally invasive procedure that destroys cancerous tumors. Pulses of radiofrequency energy are sent through a catheter (a long, thin tube) to heat and destroy diseased tissue. Currently, RFA is a standard treatment for patients with inoperable liver tumors.
RFA has proven to be a safe and effective way to treat some forms of pain. It also is generally well-tolerated, with very few associated complications. There is a slight risk of infection and bleeding at the insertion site. Your doctor can advise you about your particular risk.
