Insurance Coverage

My Current Insurance Status

I am in the process of launching my private practice. At this time, I am in network with the following insurance plans:

  • Moda

  • Regence/ Blue Cross Blue Shield (BCBS)

Insurance Contracting in Progress

I am actively pursuing network contracts with the following plans. Please note that these contracts are not yet active and timelines can vary significantly.

Commercial insurance plans:

  • PacificSource

Oregon Health Plan (OHP / Medicaid) CCOs:

  • CareOregon. ***UPDATE: I will soon be able to bill CareOregon as a non-contracted provider.

  • Trillium Community Health Plan

  • PacificSource Community Solutions

I will update this page as insurance contracts are finalized.

What This Means Right Now

Until insurance contracts are in place, visits are offered on a self-pay basis or can be billed to your insurance as out-of-network (OON) if you have OON benefits. For those without insurance or without OON benefits, you may pay my cash rates as listed above. Sliding scale options will also be available for those who are eligible. (More info coming soon.)

If you have OHP, you can continue your care at no cost with an OHP-contracted provider (including most Amenda providers); or you may choose to work with me on a private-pay basis. If you choose to pay for a service OHP normally covers, Oregon rules require us to complete the official OHP Agreement to Pay form before visits. (More detailed info available upon request.)

If I become in-network with your insurance plan in the future, coverage will apply only to visits scheduled after the contract becomes active. Most insurance plans do not allow retroactive billing, though if your specific plan does, please let me know.

Checking Your Insurance Benefits

If you have insurance, I recommend contacting your insurance plan to help you understand your benefits. If I am currently contracted (aka in-network) with your insurance plan, here are some questions you can ask to better understand your benefits:

  • Does my plan cover services provided by a licensed naturopathic doctor?

  • Does my plan cover psychotherapy services provided by a medical provider?

  • Do I have a deductible to meet before my plan will cover these services? If so, how much of it have I met?

  • What is my co-pay or co-insurance amount per visit?

  • Is a referral or prior authorization required?

  • Are there limits on the number of visits or total coverage per year?

If you have insurance, but I’m not yet contracted with your insurance plan (which is currently the case for all insurance plans), I would be considered a “non-contracted” or “out-of-network” (OON) provider. In that case, here are some questions to ask your insurance plan:

  • Does my plan have out-of-network (OON) benefits for office visits?

  • Are office visits with a licensed naturopathic physician (ND) eligible under those OON benefits?

  • Is there an out-of-network deductible, and how much of it have I met?

  • If I see an out-of-network provider, what portion of the cost am I responsible for?

  • Is prior authorization required for out-of-network visits?
