This is a guide to follow when calling to verify your insurance coverage.
We verify benefits as Courtesy & We encourage you to know what your plan covers.
Remember to call your insurance no later than 24 hours in advance of your scheduled appointment.
Call the customer service number on the back of your insurance card. Ask for benefits/eligibility & tell the
phone representative that you’re calling to check on your personal insurance benefits.
Follow the next steps by ASKING:
Do I have coverage for Acupuncture?
Please Note: If a Service is Not covered by your insurance, we offer discounted cash rates due at time of service.
Is Mandi Trimas at Blue Horizon Acupuncture in Network with my plan?
If we are Not in network, ask: Do I have Out-of-Network benefits?
Do I have a deductible to meet first to receive Acupuncture?
If Yes, How much is it?
If I do have a deductible to meet first, how much of my deductible do I still have to meet this year?
(This is the amount you will pay out of pocket this year before services are covered by insurance. This amount renews each year).
What is the date my insurance policy renews each year?
What is my co-pay or co-insurance?
Do I have an additional copay for an office visit?
If you have a deductible, this must be met before the co-insurance applies.
Is a referral required from my primary care physician? Is any other pre-authorization required?
Do I have a maximum number of visits, or a maximum dollar amount for this service each year?
Write down the name of the representative that assisted you.
