Some details to know:
- Co-pays, co-insurance and deductibles still apply if you are utilizing insurance. Most insurance plans are covering telehealth with very few restrictions through the entirely of this public health crisis, but as details are constantly changing, we recommend that you contact your insurance company directly in order to ensure that your appointment will be covered.
- We also offer a prompt pay discount option if you are not utilizing insurance. The prompt pay rates are based on how much time is needed on the call. If you are interested in knowing more, please contact the front desk to discuss your personal situation.
- Unfortunately, at this time due to state regulations Telehealth Acupuncture is only available for patients who reside in the state of Oregon
