Orthotics, Prosthetics and Pedorthics
Cranial Helmets
We value each and every child and are committed to providing excellent service. The practitioners fitting your child’s helmet are associated with the Health Science Center Orthotics & Prosthetics Labs, are pediatric specialists, and are Texas licensed and certified by the ABC. Our facility is appropriately licensed and certified in accordance with state and federal guidelines and fully accredited.
Our lab will be the provider for the specialty helmet required to be worn after your child’s surgery. In order to provide quality service and expedite the delivery of your child’s helmet, you will need to do the following as soon as you know you will be seeing Dr. Jimenez:
- Contact Bernice Vasquez 210.358.7650 or 210.567.5346 or VasquezB@uthscsa.edu.
- Provide Patient/Parent information; such as patient/parent names, telephone number(s), email address(es)
- Provide funding information; such as the name of your insurance company, name of policy holder, insurance policy number, etc.
Once we receive your information, our office will file the necessary paperwork with your insurance carrier and work with them to establish benefits -- if they are available. However, as the responsible party, we want to make you aware that insurance companies and state plans have vastly different benefits depending on the type of plan and premiums paid.
