We accept Insurance, Cash, Personal Checks, Master card and Visa.

We accept payment on the date of service in Cash, Checks, Visa, or Mastercard. We can accept most insurance that has chiropractic coverage. Some plans are restricted to particular groups of doctors (PPO) and I am on many of these plans. Some have deductibles (you should know about this, since it's your insurance).  Some groups are HMO plans, and I am also on many of them. We do bill insurance for you as a courtesy, and accept your co-pay or percentage. We can bill all Motor Vehicle and Worker's Compensation cases.

We offer SimpleCare (www.simplecare.com) as a means of controlling the cost of services in cases where there is no insurance or a high deductible. Simplecare can fix the price of regular visits to $38, $48, or $68 depending upon whether your visit is Short, Basic, or Long. New patient visits are always "Long", and after that, whether a visit is Short, Basic or Long depends on how complicated your problem or visit is, how much work I have to do as a doctor, and how much documentation is required afterwards. Some visits cannot be Simplecare visits, and in some cases, it is to your benefit to satisfy your deductible. However, SimpleCare typically helps us "tame" insurance problems by offering the same discount to everyone, legally and consistently. Simplecare visits are paid in full on the date of service, no exceptions.
The cost of a one-year SimpleCare membership is inexpensive and we have ways to make it even more affordable. Please call for more info.

If you have insurance, we will attempt to verify your insurance coverage for you. It is your responsibility to know your insurance benefits.
When contacting us, please have your insurance info available.

You should have your insurance card available so we can copy it. Most companies require this in order to bill.
If you call the Front Desk Administrator at (503) 280-9759, you can request that we can help you confirm your insurance.
We will otherwise do this during your first visit.  See the insurance company disclaimer.

Some insurance plans may allow you to pay out-of-pocket to get a discount on costs due to elimination of paperwork, and then
you bill the case to insurance yourself. We do not neccesarily recommend this.

We can give you itemized receipts for Flexible Spending Plans.

If you expect that we will bill your case to insurance, you should be prepared to pay your co-pay at your appointment.
Motor Vehicle and Worker's Comp cases have no co-pay.
