Insurance
We recommend that patients check with their insurance company to assure that we are in-network with their plan and determine the expected portion of their payment.
Insurance co-pays
Insurance co-pays are billed. We accept checks, and all major credit cards for your convenience. There is a $35.00 service charge for a returned check. Insurance is billed, however, the patient has financial responsibility for payment in full for services rendered.

Out of network
We are available to see you, but often your out-of-pocket costs are greater. You can choose a pre-service payment option for both consultation and acupuncture. Payment is before your therapeutic encounter and you are given a bill that you can submit for reimbursement. Keep in mind that some insurance companies will not cover acupuncture services and reimbursement might not be possible.
