It is my understanding that Dr. Gegaj is a primary care medical internist with a specialty in cardiology. At this point it is unclear what supplemental insurances he will be accepting along with medicare. If you are a current patient, you should be hearing directly from him as to the details about his new practice.

Gegaj is my PCP. The letter I received from FHVHealth says he is leaving on Jan. 26.
Opening his own practice in February sounds challenging to me -- ordering/installing equipment, hiring/training staff, setting up/training on a medical record system, establishing billing through Medicare and insurance companies, etc, etc. Whew!
As far as contacting his current patients with information about his new practice, I can't imaging FHVHealth willingly giving him that contact info. But what do I know?
Having said all that, I plan to stay with Dr. Gegaj.
