Insurance & Access fee at Rebel Med NW's
Integrative Concierge Clinic

Access Non-Covered Service/Concierge Fee

Our Concierge fee charged each insurance based visit goes towards the the extra time our providers spend during care visits to support your medical care, 2 week post visit time for answering any questions or support of a previously discussed care concerns, and supports the aspects of care we provide that insurance does not cover as a naturopathic physician including more time dedicated towards prevention, wellness, nutrition, & coaching.

While this may be new, it does allow us to stay in-network with some of the insurances that still provide adequate reimbursement for the covered services we provide for disease evaluation while still aiding our ability to support health optimization and wellness.  This non-covered concierge fee is in addition to any patient responsibility for services or care. This fee is absorbed into the final cost of a visit if insurance denies benefits for any service or determines that a service is not medically necessary per their benefit plan. We will additional adjust the visit to our direct pricing rate for all patients equally when insurance denies care.

Naturopathic Insurance based care:

A Concierge fee of $25 per 30 minute appointment is charged. Initial visits, prolonged visits and annual exams are $50 when a visit is over 30 minutes. This also allows us to take additional time before, during and after your visit to support your care through our functional medicine, research, and post care management support. This difference in care is why individuals seek out Naturopathic or integrative care.

Acupuncture Insurance based care:

A Concierge fee of $25 is charged per visit, and and additional $25 is charged for EAMP services, this includes manual therapy/cupping/bodywork, therapeutic education, dietary education, breath work and is not covered by insurance. You can expect $50 per visit Plus any patient responsibility.

Insurance companies and plans vary widely and change with little notice. We encourage our patients to call their insurance providers for detailed coverage benefits at our office. There are specific exclusions for various conditions when working with alternative health providers where certain diagnosis codes or services are not allowed. We do our best to rebill when there is an issue, but if insurance continues to deny it will result in our direct pricing rate.

Not all services at our office are deemed “medically necessary” in the eyes of insurance companies. We are considered “in-network” with insurance to augment care and accessibility to our medicine, but the level of patient responsibility (copay/coinsurance/deductible) per services will vary.

If you do not see your insurance provider listed below then they may be  considered “Out-Of-Network”. Please contact us if unsure. The patient will pay our self-pay pricing at the time of service and we can provide a detailed superbill that you can submit to your insurance for out of network reimbursement. For example, the First Choice Network has been closed to acupuncturists for several years, but they offer out-of-network reimbursement for our providers.
