Patient without Insurance

All payments are due at the time that professional services are rendered.

Patient with Insurance

As a courtesy, we will accept your insurance assignment as soon as this office verifies your coverage.  We will file your claim for you as soon as you supply this office with all required information as dictated by the parameters of your insurance coverage. YOU must make all arrangements for policy requirements.

Please remember that regardless of any statements by your insurance company, YOU are ultimately responsible for any and all fees for services rendered at this office. It is standard practice for insurance claims to be paid or denied within 30 days of submission. If your insurance company has not paid within 60 days, YOU ARE THEN RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY BALANCE DUE ON YOUR ACCOUNT.

If your insurance policy covers acupuncture and is using any of the Networks listed above, then you will receive the same network benefits as you would with any other specialist.  Many insurance policies now cover acupuncture and will pay out of Network as well.

All fees are based on the AMA fee guidelines. We are required to break down every aspect of your treatment into as many different CPT codes as applicable. Every insurance company processes claims differently. When you receive an EOB (Explanation of Benefits) detailing filed claims, the breakdown may or may not be as we submitted it. This office has no control over the processing of claims by any insurance company. We submit claims the same regardless of the insurance carrier. Each insurance company will apply the contracted fee accordingly. Please keep in mind that the patient is not responsible for the difference between the amount charged by the health care professional and the amount allowed by the contract.  However, the patient is responsible for any deductible, coinsurance amounts and amounts over the annual benefit limits for this service, up to the eligible expense.

If this office accepts your insurance assignment, you will be required to sign an ‘Authorization to Pay’ form and any other assignment or lien forms required by your insurance company on your first visit. This office will NOT enter into a dispute with your insurance company over your claim. THIS IS SOLELY YOUR RESPONSIBILITY AND OBLIGATION.

Please ask our staff should you have any questions. Thank you for choosing this office for your health care.

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28)

凡勞苦擔重擔的人，可以到我這裡來，我就使你們得安息。(馬太福音11:28)
