Your insurance may cover Acupuncture — and we’ll help you find out

One of the most common things we hear from new patients is: “I had no idea my insurance might cover this.” Whether you have Cigna, Aetna, United Healthcare, Anthem, Healthnet, or Blue Shield, HABA helps you understand your benefits before your first visit — clearly and without surprises.

Cigna HMO & PPO members may pay less

HABA Acupuncture is proudly in-network with Cigna HMO and Cigna PPO plans. If you carry Cigna, your visits with Dr. Mara are billed directly to your insurance and covered at the highest in-network benefit level — helping prevent any out-of-pocket cost.

Out-of-Network Benefits

Out-of-network does not always mean Uncovered

Dr. Mara is an out-of-network provider for Aetna, United Healthcare, Anthem Blue Cross, Healthnet, and many Blue Shield plans. This does not mean your visits go uncovered — it simply means your reimbursement is processed differently.

HABA’s billing team submits claims directly to your insurance company.

Visits May Still Count

Sessions before your deductible is met may count toward your annual visit allowance.

Common Coverage

Conditions insurance often covers

Most insurance plans cover acupuncture when it is medically indicated. Coverage varies by plan, but these are some of the most commonly covered concerns.

Coverage for women’s health, fertility, stress, anxiety, insomnia, and digestive issues varies by plan — but it is always worth checking.
