A question we get asked often in our office is…
“WHY DON’T YOU ACCEPT INSURANCE?”
Here’s our answer:
In general, Insurance company are not focused on preventative or wellness services. From the insurance perspective, “health care” is really “sick care” … they are focused on short-term symptom treatment. Unfortunately, the conventional model of health care too often relies on surgery and medication. Rather than finding the root cause of your health concerns, they provide the band-aids to cover up pain, dysfunction, and disease.
We’re definitely not against insurance by any means; it is extremely beneficial and appropriate in situations that are catastrophic. We like to compare it to your car insurance…you would use your car insurance for a big accident or car malfunction, but you wouldn’t use that same insurance for oil changes, gas fill ups, routine maintenance, etc. Most health goals are achieved through consistent maintenance rather than a one-off prescription approach.
The great news is that by not having to deal with insurance companies, we are able to determine our own costs and can offer affordable chiropractic care for the whole family. If you do have chiropractic coverage on your insurance plan, we will happily provide you with necessary documentation to get reimbursed if you’re willing to file yourself.
**We do accept HSA and FSA forms of payment in our office and always welcome open and honest conversations about finances. We are here to serve YOU and will do all that we can to support you.
