Insurance billing 

I am to happy bill your insurance for you

• Regular medical insurance plans:
  • As of November 2023 I am in network with
    • Regence BCBS
    • Pacific Source
    • MODA
    • Kaiser
    • TriWest/ VA for veterans

Not all plans cover acupuncture. 

Acupuncture benefits are easy to understand.  I send patients a form to verify their coverage and I will also verify coverage as well, in case there is a discrepancy.

In many cases I can bill your insurance as an out-of-network provider.  So if you do not see your insurance carrier on my list, please call and I will see what they will contribute.  

I only take OHP at my Brookside clinic.

• Motor vehicle accident injuries:
  • Do not need a referral
  • Older claims need to have remaining PIP benefits.
  • Some auto-insurances are wonderful to work with but some are not.
  • I rarely have problems with claims, I keep excellent chart notes.
  • Please realize that you are responsible for all charges from your care here for the injuries sustained in the accident.
• Worker's Compensation:
  • Can be billed if your workers' compensation  insurance will allow.
  • Needs a prescription from the main attending doctor linked to your case and your specific diagnosis.
  • I will get written verification from your WC insurance before we start care if you do not already have it.
  • Please realize that you are responsible for all charges from your care here for the injuries sustained in the accident.

 

 

 

Important definitions used in the insurance world:

• Deductible: amount you pay per year before insurance will contribute to acupuncture care.  In many cases, the "deductible is waived."
• Co-pay:  a set fee that you pay, that does not change with the amount of care you receive.
• Co-insurance: a set percentage of the fee for services provided.  Varies with the amount of care that you receive.
• Out-of-pocket-maximum: If you needed a lot of medical care in any one year like surgeries etc, once you have paid this amount then you will not have to pay anymore co-pays or co-insurance until the next year.
