Eligibility of acupuncture benefits should be checked prior to the first visit. Please contact your insurance company to determine if your plan includes benefits for acupuncture, and if the condition(s) for which you seek treatment are considered "medically necessary" by your insurance company. While every effort will be made to choose an appropriate diagnosis for payment reimbursement, a guarantee of benefits paid cannot be made until the claim has been submitted and reviewed by your insurance company.
If you use a flexible spending account (FSA), health savings account (HSA), or receive out-of-network benefits for an insurance company not listed, a superbill will be provided with diagnostic and procedural codes for payment reimbursement.
*Please discuss any financial or time constraints at your initial consultation.
