Your costs to go to a chiropractor will depend…
If you call around to 5 different chiropractic offices you’ll get 5 different answers. The simplest thing to start with is insurance or no insurance. When you call Rising Sun Chiropractic and ask about the cost we are able to give you a pretty good idea of what to expect.
I’ve got insurance!
We’ve worked with insurance for years and while the rules change all the time we have a good understanding of what to expect with the major insurers. During your first visit, we will take an initial look at your benefits so by the time your appointment is over we can be confident of your out of pocket costs for the day. When you come for your second visit we will have an even clearer idea of your out of pocket responsibilities and will discuss your options with you. Even with insurance coverage, most policies will have some level of out of pocket responsibilities, we’ll help you understand them the best we can.
No insurance? No Problem!
It’s hard to see the value for insurance sometimes, crazy deductibles, insurance premiums, and still paying a copay. When you call Rising Sun Chiropractic we can tell you the exact costs for our self-pay services. Exam costs can vary based on the complexity and time of your first visit. Adjustments, therapies, laser, and rehab have set costs that don’t change visit to visit. We have payment options available if you need and our cash rates are often less than co-pays these days.
Shopping Around
In general, chiropractic offices charge anywhere from $30 to several hundred dollars per appointment depending on services rendered. Across the nation, you’ll see an average visit cost of about $65. There are some therapies and treatments that can cost more but often it’s dependent on where you live and general costs in your region. Our advice, be wary of free treatments or dirt cheap coupons for care, if it’s too good to be true it usually is.
