I have Medicare & Medicaid. My psychiatrist wants me to undergo a 30+ visit, Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation next year. Does that mean 30+ co-pays or like one hospital procedure?

Next year my psychiatrist would like me to undergo a treatment called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. What this entails is 6 weeks of 5 days per week 20 minute treatments with an electromagnet (or whatever they want to call it) on the scalp. And then a taper off period.

I have no idea which Medicare plan would be best, if any, for this 30 visit treatment plan. Not really asking for specifics but HOW to pick. My psychiatrist said he doesn’t think I would have to pay anything because it’s not technically a specialist visit. I think I would have to pay a co-pay, whether it be $40 or $20, for each visit which would be kind of hefty. He said I should be more concerned about my “deductible”

I currently see him for a $40 co-pay which confuses me because I don’t have to pay it. Something with me having Medicaid and even though he doesn’t accept medicaid he still can’t bill. . . But at any time they can refuse service? That’s what I learned online to the best of my grasp. Maybe you all could explain better.

Does anyone have any idea where to start with this and what TMS qualifies as?
