Rates & Insurance

Acupuncture is covered by a growing number of health insurance plans, but benefits vary considerably from one policy to another. Some plans provide broad acupuncture coverage, while others may limit coverage to certain conditions or a specific number of visits each year.

Our Chicago acupuncture clinic is in network with a number of major insurance networks, including:

• Blue Cross Blue Shield
• UnitedHealthcare / Optum
• Aetna
• Veterans Community Care Network
• Meritain Health
• UMR

Coverage is determined by your individual insurance plan. Being in network with an insurance company does not necessarily mean that your particular policy includes acupuncture benefits, so it is important to verify benefits beforehand.

We currently do not accept HMO plans or Medicaid.

Insurance policies can be confusing, so we're happy to help determine whether your plan includes acupuncture coverage.

When verifying benefits, some of the important questions include:

Does my plan cover acupuncture?
Are acupuncture benefits limited to certain medical conditions?
How many acupuncture visits are allowed each year?
Do I have a deductible, and how much has been met?
What is my copayment or coinsurance?
Are my benefits different for in-network and out-of-network acupuncture providers?

When eligible, our office can submit acupuncture claims directly to your insurance company. Your insurance company ultimately determines coverage and payment, and patients are responsible for charges not covered by their plan.

Want Us to Check Your Benefits?

Call or email our office and we'll be happy to help verify your acupuncture insurance benefits before your first visit.

Don't have acupuncture insurance coverage? You can still receive care at our Chicago clinic at affordable self-pay rates.

We intentionally keep our self-pay acupuncture pricing reasonable because many conditions benefit from a series of treatments. Our goal is to make it easier for patients to receive an appropriate frequency of care without compromising the quality or individualized attention they receive.

• Facial Rejuvenation Acupuncture with LED Light Therapy — $110

HSA & FSA Accounts

Acupuncture may be paid for using eligible Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds.

We are happy to provide an itemized receipt or other appropriate documentation for patients who need it for reimbursement or their records. Your current website already tells patients that HSA/FSA funds can be used for acupuncture.

Payment Options

Payment is due at the time of service for patients who are not using insurance. We accept major credit cards and cash.

If you're unsure whether you should use insurance or our self-pay option, feel free to contact our office and we'll be happy to help you understand your options.
