Bastyr Center for Natural Health is contracted with several insurance companies — Regence, Premera, Aetna, First Choice, Cigna, and Uniform. We will also bill other insurance plans as a courtesy, however, it is the patient’s responsibility to verify specific coverage for complementary and alternative medicine. We also offer discounts for payments at time of service to benefit patients who are not utilizing insurance benefits.

On March 1, 2000, the Every Category of Provider law went into effect in Washington, requiring all private insurance companies to provide a benefit for every category of health care provider. This includes naturopathic medicine, homeopathic medicine, physical medicine (such as soft-tissue manipulation), acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, nutrition consulting and counseling. The law does not dictate what the benefit must be (such as how many visits should be covered or who can deliver the care), but the result is that now several insurance companies will pay for alternative and complementary health care appointments. The law does not apply to insurance companies that are not privately funded, such as Medicare, Medicaid, Basic Health Plan and self-funded plans. Out-of-state medical plans are not necessarily required to follow this law. Please check with your plan to confirm coverage.

Each patient should check with Member Services at their insurance plan to understand their specific benefits. Patients not utilizing insurance will be asked for payment at the time of their appointment. We accept cash, checks, debit cards and Visa and Mastercard.
