Pricing, Payment and InsuranceWe provide quality health care services at competitive, fair pricing. In fact, the cost of Oriental medicine is often less than the true cost of conventional treatment and pharmaceuticals. HealthPartners Provider ![[IMAGE]](images/141_0_48814_12_healthparnters.jpg)
HealthPoint is an in-network provider for HealthPartners members, including those covered by commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, GAMC, PMAP, and MnCare Plans. Acupuncture covered through HealthPartners generally requires no prior authorization to begin treatment at HealthPoint and HealthPoint handles all paper-work related to your care.
Medica Provider
HealthPoint is a particpating, in-network provider for members of Medica's commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, GAMC, PMAP, and MnCare plans. We are also a participating provider for Medica self-insured and Patient Choice plans. Acupuncture coverage varies across Medica plans/products, so we verify coverage on your behalf prior to treatment. Again, HealthPoint handles all paper-work related to your care.
Other Insurance Coverage and Payment Options
HealthPoint is a provider under Minnesota workers compensation. No paper-work is required of you; we submit claims on your behalf.
In addition, a number of health plans and auto insurers now cover acupuncture for injury and/or pain syndromes and other health conditions. We encourage you to check your specific coverage, or call us and we will help verify coverage.
Individuals with health spending accounts or flex-spending accounts (either in addition to or in lieu of employer sponsored health care coverage) can use pre-tax dollars to pay for acupuncture, oriental medicine, and body work. Acupuncture services at HealthPoint are also covered under flex-spending accounts and health savings accounts (HSAs).
At your request, we will speak directly with your insurance carrier to clarify your coverage and we will provide all necessary information to submit to your insurance plan or your account administrator.
Our experienced staff is happy to assist with questions regarding insurance. Please have your insurance card and/or coverage information at hand when you contact us, or bring it to your first appointment.
Important Reminders
While we do our best to obtain prior authorization (where necessary) before treatment begins and verify your insurance benefits, you are ultimately responsible to obtain any necessary prior authorization and/or for final payment on your account. Therefore, it is in your best interest for you to verify your coverage. Please remember that your health plan or insurance company makes final determination of coverage levels at the time claims are actually processed.Please be aware that your insurance coverage may have an annual deductible amount that must be satisfied before your coverage benefits apply. Also note that any copayment or coinsurance amount for which you may be responsible is due at the time of service.Again, we are happy to assist you with any of your insurance/coverage related questions. For private pay patients, full payment is due at the time of service unless other arrangements are made.For uninsured patients (or those whose coverage does not include acupuncture), HealthPoint offers various payment plan options. Please contact us to inquire.
As a service to you and for your protection, HealthPoint treats all payment and medical information as strictly confidential and maintains a secure information environment.
