Listed are the Common Questions that employers have when they consider hiring an OPA-C. (Because of the sensitive nature of the answers you must send us an email.)  The information that will be sent is what we use in Texas.  I am not sure what the state laws and regulations are in each state.  Please use the information as a guide.

  • Employer Credentialing tips for OPA-C's.
  • How to bill for your OPA-C.
  • Scope of Practice for an OPA-C.
  • Average reimbursement rates for your OPA-C. If you give a specific insurance company and procedure code we can be more accurate.
  • What insurance companies will reimburse for OPA-C's to assist in surgery. 
 If you want to hire an OPA-C and you want the questions above or others answered, please email the TCOPA Webmaster or contact any of the Executive Board Members.
