If you’re covered to receive massage therapy under your insurance plan, I’m happy to see you as a client. However, I do not directly bill insurance companies. I can print out an itemized receipt that you can use to get reimbursed for some or all of your session cost.
I will directly bill for selected L & I or PIP claims.
See below for instructions for reimbursement, when applicable, with Aetna, Premera, United/Optum Health and Regence. In general, you’ll be asking if massage therapy is covered under your plan. I’m a “preferred provider” with Aetna, Premera and Optum Health, should they ask.
Aetna — 1-800-US-AETNA
Eligibility: “When recommended by a health care professional for a medical condition, the cost of massage therapy is a qualified medical expense. Submit evidence of medical necessity (e.g., prescription, doctor’s note) with the request for reimbursement.”
