Payment Policy
Payment is expected at the time of service, unless a specific written arrangement has been made in advance.
We offer a discounted prepayment plan for patients who purchase a series of eight treatments. Fee schedule and explanation of services.
- We do not bill insurance companies directly, with the exception of third party insurers such as worker’s compensation and motor vehicle insurance, when treatment has been authorized beforehand.
- Patients will be given a detailed statement of services and charges that they may submit to their insurance for reimbursement if their health plan permits. Dr. Haller is not on any preferred provider networks.
- Medicare does not cover acupuncture itself, but may reimburse for some other components of the treatments
Missed appointments
- When you make an appointment, an hour of Dr. Haller’s time is set aside for you. A fee will be charged for missed appointments or cancellations made with less than 24 hours notice.
- We understand that unpredictable circumstances can occasionally arise, and do make a one time exception in such cases.
