Acupuncture - Paying With Health Insurance
We ask all new acupuncture patients to use instructions in our new patient form to call your provider to gather details about your plan and coverage, including our status as out-of-network provider.   Regardless of network status and the general details they provide, we will ask you to pay for your visits at time of service.  Out of Network patients will be provided with a "Super Bill", which is just a fancy name for a receipt that you can use for insurance credit/reimbursement.   
  • $165   - New Patient Visit including 1 treatment 
  • $95 / treatment
  • additional $20 treatment for electric acupuncture
  

Detailed information related to Health Insurance and Health Insurance Claims Processing can be found on the "More" menu.
