Insurance Coverage

New patients are always welcome at the Clinic.

MAKE AN APPOINTMENT

One of the initial reasons that some people do not seek Chiropractic care, is that it is not directly funded by the government.

There are several programs available that cover partial or all treatment expenses for the patient.

If you are eligible for any of these programs, your Chiropractic receptionist can assist you with information to help obtain coverage, and will try to answer any questions that you may have.

Programs We Work With
