Medical Weight Loss
Inflammatory bowel disease refers to chronic inflammation of the digestive tract, consisting of diseases, such as ulcerative colitis (UC), and Crohn’s disease. Symptoms of these conditions include diarrhea, pain, fatigue, and weight loss, and may be life-impairing in some severe cases. These are chronic conditions that require expertise from gastroenterologists who are experts in the management of IBD.
Primary Care
As the patient, you are responsible to provide SAGA/SAGEC with accurate insurance information for billing purposes prior to your procedure, as many insurances may require prior authorizations or referrals from your primary care physician that take time. If these are not obtained prior to the procedure, your procedure may not be covered by your insurance carrier. Please let us know if you anticipate a change in your insurance plan when booking your procedure.
Emergency Care
When you get emergency care or get treated by an out-of-network provider at an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, you are protected from surprise billing or balance billing.
Colonoscopy
A colonoscopy is widely recognized as the gold standard for both detecting and treating colorectal cancer. During a colonoscopy, the physician examines the entire colon, searching for polyps or abnormalities.
Constipation
Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Irritable bowel syndrome, referred to as IBS, is a common condition that can affect all ages. Irritable bowel syndrome commonly causes cramping, abdominal pain, bloating, gas, and irregular bowel movements such as diarrhea or constipation. IBS is a chronic condition that requires long term management.
Diarrhea

Gastroenterology
The southside office of San Antonio Gastroenterology Associates (SAGA) is near Southwest General Hospital inside the Medical Center Southwest building on Barlite Blvd. This location features three exam rooms and services from the expert gastroenterologists of SAGA, who offer diagnosis and treatment for various digestive disorders and conditions.
Colon Cancer
Colon cancer affects the large intestine (colon). It is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths for both men and women. In 2014 alone, there were an estimated 50,000 deaths due to this disease.
Endoscopy
One from the endoscopy center (SAGEC): this bill is payment for your procedure. Payment is due to the endoscopy center (SAGEC).See example of SAGEC bill here

Ultrasound
Endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) uses sound waves (ultrasound) to produce high quality images of the lining of the upper digestive tract (esophagus, stomach, and 1st part of the small intestine); as well other organs that are near it such as the liver, gallbladder, pancreas, and surrounding lymph nodes.
Radiology
When you get services from an in-network hospital or ambulatory surgical center, certain providers there may be out-of- network. In these cases, the most those providers may bill you is your plan’s in-network cost-sharing amount. This applies to emergency medicine, anesthesia, pathology, radiology, laboratory, neonatology, assistant surgeon, hospitalist, or intensivist services. These providers can’t balance bill you and may not ask you to give up your protections not to be balance billed.
X-Rays
Computed Tomography
Polyps may eventually grow into malignant tumors, or colon cancer, if neglected. Colon cancer prevention is achievable through careful inspection and removal of polyps, called a colonoscopy. Of all the tests to screen for colon cancer (stool tests, CT scan, etc.) only a colonoscopy provides the ability to remove precancerous polyps or even early colon cancer tumors.

Cyst
Ulcer
An infection with H. pylori is not uncommon. Roughly two-thirds of the world’s population is infected with H. pylori, yet for most people, it doesn’t cause ulcers or any other symptoms. If you have an ulcer, you may feel a dull or burning pain in your belly.
