INSURANCE
I take Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare, and Cigna. The best way to find if you have coverage for acupuncture is to call your carrier and ask. See below for guidance questions.
​​
-
Does my plan cover acupuncture? If so, do I also have out-of-network benefits?
​
-
How many visits are covered?
​​
-
If the number of visits is limited, are they combined with any other treatments (like chiropractic, PT, etc)?
​
-
Do I have a deductible? If so, how much have I met?
​
-
What’s my copay/coinsurance?
​
-
What’s covered? (For example, some plans only cover pain, & some only cover anesthesia). It’s helpful if they can direct you to a list of what’s covered so you can determine if your condition meets their criteria.

Ask for the name for the person who assisted you, as well as a reference number.
