Acupuncturist That Takes Cigna Insurance
Every Visit, Every Tool
Every visit is designed around your condition, not a predetermined treatment menu. We combine acupuncture with other effective therapies – including electro-acupuncture, dry needling, cupping, manual therapies, and infrared treatment – to maximize treatment success.
Cigna Health Insurance at Silverlake Acupuncture
While we are not in Cigna’s provider network, many patients with PPO plans have out-of-network acupuncture benefits. We will submit claims electronically on your behalf, allowing you to receive all reimbursement your plan provides.
This streamlines the insurance process and speeds up reimbursement as well as avoiding patients having to submit “superbills” on their own.
Does Silverlake Acupuncture Take Other Health Insurance?
We were in-network and had been accepting Oscar Health Insurance for many years, however Oscar left the state in 2023. We are still in-network with hybrid Cigna+Oscar products.
We are also in-network with select Blue Shield of California plans so long as they are not managed by American Specialty Health (ASH). ASH is an organization that provides management services for health insurance companies, alleviating insurance companies of the paperwork burden involved with processing, approving, and paying claims. Since we do not belong to ASH, we are out-of-network for all plans managed by them.
Unfortunately, we are also out of network with Anthem Blue Cross, Aetna, and United Healthcare. If you have out-of-network benefits available with these companies, we can submit billing for out-of-network benefits except for ASH-managed plans.
How Can You Tell if Your Plan is Part of an ASH or IPA Group?
The best way to tell if your health insurance is part of an ASH or IPA group is by checking your insurance card. Look for the ASH or IPA designation somewhere on your card, typically on the back. We’re out-of-network if there’s any reference to an IPA or ASH.
What Acupuncture Treatments Does Your Insurance Plan Cover?
Saying “health insurance is confusing” is putting it mildly. Sure, your policy may cover acupuncture, but what does it cover? How many annual visits will they allow? What types of treatments and modalities are covered? What kind of co-pay or deductibles apply? If you have these or any questions, please give us a call.
Silverlake Acupuncture can help, but ultimately, you’re better positioned to get these answers than we are. Calling us and providing us with your group number won’t enable us to tell you with certainty that our acupuncture services are covered.
