Insurance
Before scheduling your appointment, we recommend you contact your insurance company to verify that the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is included in your network. Your insurance company will also be able to inform you of any copayments, co–insurance, or deductibles that will be your responsibility. If you proceed in scheduling an appointment and your health insurance benefits do not participate with OHSU providers, your out of pocket liability may be higher. Visit the billing and insurance section of our site for more information.
Biography
Dr. Stecker's clinical care focuses on improving symptoms through ablation of arrhythmias, managing slow heart rhythms through implantation of pacemakers, managing heart failure and risk of sudden cardiac death through implantation of implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs), and reducing stroke risk through appropriate anticoagulation of atrial fibrillation. While his clinic is not a dedicated smoking cessation center, all patients who smoke are directed toward resources to support an attempt to quit since this is often the single most important intervention for improving health and preventing death.
