Insurance

It is well worth checking with your insurance carrier to see if you will be reimbursed. Go the Verify Your Insurance button below and fill out your information. Two days later your insurance details will come to me (not to you). Note that I accept any insurance that provide out of network benefits.

If you haven't contacted me directly and you send in your insurance verification online, I won’t necessarily know that you did this. So please be sure to contact me after a couple of days. This will ensure that I get your information to you.

The cost for those using insurance can vary.  Each case will be unique. You may have a co-pay or must meet your deductible first. 

Medicare: In 2022, Medicare approved acupuncture for treatment for low back pain only. To be eligible, treatment must be performed by a physician. Thus, I cannot bill for Medicare. Further, most Medicare supplements do not cover acupuncture. That said, retired Federal, IMF, IFC and World Bank employees generally have coverage for acupuncture.

Payment methods

We accept cash, checks, Zelle, Venmo, PayPal and credit cards.

You may use your HSA, FSA or MSA accounts for payment also.

Payment is due at the time of your appointment.

Costs

While acupuncture can give you remarkable and often speedy results, its true power is in regularity of treatment.

If you are seeking lasting results, you may be coming for eight or more sessions. Each person's case is different. In all cases I aim to get you better as fast as possible. And when you are better you get your life back!

Cash Payment Rates

First visit, 75-90 minutes: $175.00

Discounts

If you have a host of complaints, and it appears that you may need to be in treatment for an extended period, I offer pre-paid packages of 11 treatments at a discount. This is an option explored after your first visit or later, when we determine your level of response to treatment. This is not applicable if you are covered by insurance or receiving a senior discount,

70 Years Old or More: We offer n 11.5% discount — $115 per session (as of Jan. 1, 2024). This rate applies only to those who are not covered by insurance for acupuncture. For discussion of insurance, see the section above.
