Hi Danielle,
So sorry, I didnt see I was asked to post here!!!
I think I asnwered a few questions about the accupunture in the other thread, but in regards to the insurance here goes it. Its really NOT covered by my plan. They do have a "negiated" reduced rate for service, so it costs $30 a visit, instead of $40. That doesnt include herbs, which he discounts to me at his cost, since he has me on so many right now, and we are friends. The 1st visit was the most expensive, costing $140, but regualr visits are cheaper.
I was seeing him twice a week, now just weekly. It is COSTLY, but, SO SO SO worth it. He has also agreed to treat me at home, if the HG is too bad for me to go to his office (he lives RIGHT next door, so it isnt out of his way) and he said if we had to, we would do DAILY treatments, but I have NO idea how we will be able to pay for that
We did set up a Flexible Spending account this year and that should help with SOME of the costs.
I cant stress how HAPPY Ive been with the treatments and how much I really feel it IS worth it, even if it doesnt help with the HG. I, of course, HOPE it does help with the hg
Hope that answers a few questions. Please feel free to ask more
Robin
