Insurance can be one of the most confusing parts of healthcare. At Orthopedic Institute, we make it easier!

OI proudly participates in both Sanford and Avera Health Plans, but every plan is different—so verifying your specific coverage is essential. Understanding co-pays, deductibles, and medical supply coverage keeps your care moving smoothly.

Our patients can count on Orthopedic Institute for transparent, patient-focused support.
