IS ACUPUNCTURE COVERED BY INSURANCE?

Insurance coverage of acupuncture and HSA/FSA payments

I am an acupuncture provider for Blue Cross Blue Shield of MA, Harvard Pilgrim Health Care, Aetna, Tufts, and Mass General Brigham.  Please check with me to determine if I am a provider for your plan & and check with insurance carrier directly to determine what your coverage level may be and your explanantion of benefits.


Acupuncture is a service that can be paid through a Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA), also called a flex plan or reimbursement account.  It is an employer-sponsored benefit that allows you to pay for eligible medical expenses on a pre-tax basis.  I require direct payment at time of service, but I am happy to provide you with a receipt for reimbursement from your flex plan.
