Insurance and Acupuncture
Why many acupuncture clinics don't take insurance:
There are several reasons why some acupuncture clinics may not accept insurance:
- Reimbursement rates: Insurance companies may not reimburse acupuncture clinics at a rate that covers the full cost of providing the service. This can lead to financial losses for the clinic.
- Administrative burden: The process of submitting claims to insurance companies and managing billing and payments can be time-consuming and complex.
- Limited coverage: Not all insurance plans cover acupuncture, and those that do may have restrictions on the number of treatments or conditions that are covered. Some clinics may choose not to accept insurance to avoid confusion or disappointment among patients who have limited or no coverage.
- More time to focus on patients: Acupuncture clinics that do not take insurance can provide high-quality care for their patients. By not being bound to insurance companies' rules and regulations, clinics focus more on the individual needs of each patient, since the clinic does not have to worry about insurance reimbursement, they can schedule longer appointment times. This allows for more thorough consultations, treatment, and patient education, such as how to maintain a healthy lifestyle: dietary changes, stress reduction techniques, and exercise recommendations.
- Specialization: Some acupuncture clinics may focus on treating specific conditions or using specialized techniques that are not covered by insurance.
It is important to note that while we do not accept insurance, many others do. If you are interested in acupuncture and have insurance coverage, we can either send you an invoice/superbill after the treatment, which you might get a reimbursement after you submit the claim by yourself, or give your insurance company a call or go to their website to find a in network practitioner. We can also refer you to some other practitioners might work with your insurance, contact us today to learn more.
