Acupuncture is Covered Under Extended Health Benefits
We are approved health care providers and offer the service of direct billing for many different extended health insurance providers. This service means you have fewer out-of-pocket expenses and one less chore you have to deal with when you get home.
In order to provide you with direct billing service, we require:
Your Policy number (Policy #)
Your Member ID
Your Date of Birth
For select insurance providers, such as Veteran’s Affairs (VAC), you may need a doctor’s referral.
If you are not the primary insurance holder, we will also require to know your relationship with the insured member. eg: son, spouse, etc. As well as the primary insurer’s name & date of birth.
You can provide your direct billing information in two ways:
Fill out the direct billing area in your Acupuncture Intake Form before your first visit.
Bring your extended health care card, insurance information to your first appointment.
After your insurance profile is all set up in our system, we will be able to direct bill to your insurance company at each one of your visits.
Please be aware that your claim may be denied or we may experience technical difficulties and cannot guarantee that we can direct bill at every single visit. If these things happen, we will require you to pay for your visit and issue you a receipt you can submit on your own time.
Each extended health care plan is different and almost as unique as you. You may have to pay a portion of the treatment cost that your insurance company does not pay. Payment amounts depend on your individual coverage and what the magic computer portal tells us at your visit. It is wise to check with your healthcare provider and be clear about exactly what kind of coverage is available to you. Also, some insurance companies aren’t set up for direct billing, so we will issue you a receipt and you can submit it at your convenience.
