INSURANCE
We are happy to call your insurance carrier and check your acupuncture benefits for you. Grab your insurance card and call us today!

There are many insurance companies that cover acupuncture and we are preferred providers for the following:
Aetna, KPS, First Choice, Sound Health, Regence, United, Amerigroup, Cigna, Premera, Ambetter (Coordinated Care), Triwest, PIP (Personal Injury Protection), as well as other health insurance policies under the Whole Health Network.
​
We are not preferred providers for Premera or Lifewise, because of this we will not be able to bill your insurance company for you but we would be happy to provide you with a "super bill" that you can send in to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Please note that we will bill some insurance companies as a courtesy to you but that the ultimate financial obligation is yours and not that of your insurance company. Our insurance rates are $160 for an Initial Visit and $130 for a Return Visit. These rates differ from our time of service payments, which are discounted. Please note that these are the fees that you will be charged if you need to meet your deductible before your coverage begins. If you have further questions about this process please do not hesitate to ask us, we would be happy to clarify.

**Insurance will not cover the cost of herbs.
**DSHS, Medicare and L & I currently do not cover acupuncture.
**Insurance will not cover missed appointments fees and you will be charged $40 for rescheduling or cancelling your appointment that was reserved for you without 24 hours notice.
