A missing listing does not mean out of network. Directories change, and a listing does not cover every office. Call Dr. Tung’s office at (408) 885-5000 to confirm they take your plan. Ask about the office you use, its medical group, referrals and appointments.

Medicaid work

$8,662 in 2024

Medicaid paid $8,662 for 139 billed services this clinician did in 2024, up to 19 people in a month for one service.

Medicaid and CHIP claims where this clinician did the service, fee-for-service and managed care together. Any month with fewer than 11 patients is hidden, so small Medicaid practices undercount.
