Insurance

How does it work?


  1. Upload your insurance information when you fill out your clinic profile. You will be prompted to upload an image of your insurance card or a screenshot of your e-card. Depending on the insurance company, some may ask for the policy holders information as well. Once this has been completed, we should be able to direct bill for you.
  2. Co-pay: Some insurance plans require the client to pay an amount of the massage treatment. This amount is called a co-pay and is specific to your plan. You can find out this detail by either logging into your insurance companies app or contacting them directly. Each plan will state a "eligible amount" and then as well a "percentage of payment" and those two details together determine how much of the treatment will be covered.                                            Example: eligible amount ($115)  + percentage of payment (80%) = $92 covered & $23 co-pay to be paid by client.
  3. Doctors Notes: A few plans still require a doctors note to bill massage treatments. To know if your plan requires a note you need to contact your insurance company and ask.
  4. Apps: Most insurance companies have apps that you can use to check your plans details, access you e-card, track your claims, and submit a treatment when direct billing is unavailable.
  5. Tax Write Off: There are several instances where people can write off treatments like massage during their tax filing. You can ask a financial advisor for more specific details.
