7.6. Prices?
7.6.1. Best to list a price range, from your most discounted rate and simplest service to your most expensive rate and complex service, including all charges for cash and insurance patients. This helps you avoid potential problems with insurance companies and their insistence that insurance & cash patients are always paid the same (even when this isn't possible due to differing levels of service).
7.6.2. You can then give patients a quick, easy, painless and no-risk way to inquire about the cost of the specific services they desire
7.6.3. Good also to talk about the prices of supplements and so on
7.6.4. Example : Depending on the level of service you choose, whether you are billing insurance, and your ability to pay, your treatment may cost as little as $25 (low-income herbs only consult) or as much as $220 (full insurance rate for maximum level of service). If you would like to find out how much your desired services will be in your situation, please contact us by email and we will get back to you quickly"
7.6.5. You may decide just to list your simple prices. That's fine, but be sure that you never, ever charge insurance more than 30% over your published rates for the same services.
