Insurance
Simhananda Healing Arts is not in-network with any health insurance companies, and we do not bill insurance (health insurance, auto, or worker’s comp) for services provided. If your insurance company covers acupuncture services, we are happy to provide you with a receipt (superbill) for you to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
All services provided that will be submitted for out-of-network health insurance reimbursement with a superbill must be charged at the full and regular appointment fee. Superbills are not available for reduced rate, package rate, or discounted services if being submitted to health insurance.
