This is a confidential record of your medical history and will be kept in this office. Information contained in this form will not be released to any person except when you have authorized us to do so.

Financial Policy
Thank you for choosing us as your health care provider. We are committed to your treatment being successful. Please understand that payment of your bill is considered part of your treatment. The following is a statement of our Financial Policy, which we require you to read and sign prior to any treatment.
All patients must complete our "Patient Questionnaire" before seeing the doctor.
FULL PAYMENT IS DUE AT TIME OF SERVICE. WE ACCEPT CASH, CHECKS, VISA or MASTERCARD.
REGARDING INSURANCE
Upon schedling your first appointment we will verify coverage for acupuncture benefits. If for any reason we are not able to verify coverage prior to your treatment, you will be charged for services rendered until verification is obtained. Our fees are determined by the complexity of the particular case and the different services used during treatment. Any balance due on your treatments is your responsibility whether your insurance company pays or not. We cannot bill your insurance company unless you bring in all insurance information. Your insurance policy is a contract between you and your insurance company. We are not a party to that contract. But in the case we are a contracted provider by your insurance we will gladly accept the prearranged payment as full payment minus co-pay. Additionally in signing this document you authorize the release of any information to any insurance company, adjustor or attorney that will assist in the payment of your claim.
USUAL AND CUSTOMARY RATES (URC)
Our practice is committed to providing the best treatment possible for our patients. We charge what is usual and customary for our area. Please be aware, at times, some or all of the services provided, may be “non-covered” services and not considered reasonable and necessary under the Medicare program and/or by other medical insurance. You are responsible for payment in full regardless of any insurance company’s arbitrary determination of usual and customary rates.

I hereby request and consent to the performance of acupuncture treatments and other procedures within the scope of the practice of acupuncture on me (or on the patient named below, for whom I am legally responsible) by the acupuncturist named below and/or other licensed acupuncturists who now or in the future treat me while employed by, working or associated with or serving as backup for the acupuncturist named below, including those working at the clinic or office listed below or any other office or clinic, whether signatories to this form or not. I understand that methods of treatment may include, but are not limited to, acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, electrical stimulation, Tui-Na (Chinese massage), Chinese herbal medicine, and nutritional counseling. I understand that the herbs may need to be prepared and the teas consumed according to the instructions provided orally and in writing. The herbs may be an unpleasant smell or taste. I will immediately notify a mom Dor of the clinical staff of any unanticipated or unpleasant effects associated with the consumption of the heros. I have been informed that acupuncture is a generally safo method of treatment, but that it may have some side effects, including bruising, numbness or tingling near the needling sites that may last a few days, and dizziness or fainting. Bums and/or scarring are a potential risk of moxibustion and cupping, or when treatment involves the use of heat lamps. Bruising is a common side effect of cupping. Unusual risks of acupuncture include spontaneous miscarriage, nerve damage and organ puncture, including lung puncture (pneumothorax). Infection is another possible risk, although the clinic uses sterile disposable needles and maintains a dean and safe environment. I understand that while this document describes the major risks of treatment, other side effects and risks may occur. The herbs and nutritional supplements (which are from plant, animal and mineral sources) that have been recommended are traditionally considered safe in the practice of Chinese Medicine, although some may be toxic in large doses. I understand that some herbs may be inappropriate during pregnancy. Some possible side effects of taking herbs are nausea, gas. stomachache, vomiting, headache, diarrhea, rashes, hives, and tingling of the tongue. I will notify a clinical staff member who is caring for me if I am or become pregnant. I do not expect the clinical staff to be able to anticipate and explain all possible risks and complications of treatment, and I wish to rely on the clinical staff to exercise judgment during the course of treatment which the clinical staff thinks at the time, based upon the facts then known is in my best interest. I understand that results are not guaranteed. I understand the clinical and administrative staff may review my patient records and lab reports, but all my records will be kept confidential and will not be released without my written consent. By voluntarily signing below, I show that I have read, or have had read to me, the above consent to treatment, have been told about the risks and benefits of acupuncture and other procedures, and have had an opportunity to ask questions. I intend this consent form to cover the entire course of treatment for my present condition and for any future condition(s) for which I seek treatment.
