Superficial radiation therapy (SRT) is designed to treat non-melanoma skin cancers, such as basal cell carcinoma. Today’s advanced technology means that the SRT route is now a primary pathway for certain types of skin cancer.
Superficial radiation therapy (SRT) is generally covered by most insurance policies. This also includes Medicare plans—although these can be more complex. However, it’s important to get guidance from your insurance company before assuming every aspect will be paid for, as sometimes exceptions apply.
