If you’re considering neuropathy treatment, one of the first questions you may have is, “Will my insurance cover it?” The answer depends on several factors — including your policy type, diagnosis, and the therapies recommended by your provider.
At Premier Health Institute, we want patients to focus on healing, not paperwork. That’s why our team works closely with each individual to verify benefits, explain coverage in plain language, and outline transparent payment options for every situation.
Here’s what you should know before starting care.
1. What Insurance Typically Covers
Most insurance companies recognize neuropathy as a legitimate medical condition and will cover initial evaluations and diagnostic testing. These services may include:
• Consultation and medical history review
• Nerve conduction and circulation testing
• Lab work or imaging ordered to determine underlying causes
These diagnostics help confirm a medical necessity for treatment — a key factor in whether therapies are approved for reimbursement.
2. What May Not Be Fully Covered
Advanced, non-surgical treatments such as red-light therapy, neuro-stimulation, and regenerative medicine are considered innovative or adjunctive care. Because many insurance carriers haven’t yet updated policies to reflect recent breakthroughs, some services may be classified as “out-of-network” or “non-covered.”
However, partial reimbursement is sometimes available if your plan includes flexible wellness or specialty care allowances. Our staff will help you submit the proper documentation and letters of medical necessity to improve your chances of approval.
3. How Premier Health Institute Simplifies the Process
We believe you shouldn’t need a law degree to understand your insurance benefits. During your first visit, our team:
• Contacts your insurance provider to verify active coverage
• Reviews your deductible, copay, and coinsurance amounts
• Determines which diagnostic codes apply to your case
• Explains estimated out-of-pocket costs before you begin treatment
You’ll never face surprise bills or hidden fees. Transparency is part of our promise to every patient.
4. Flexible Payment and Financing Options
Even when insurance doesn’t cover certain treatments, we make care accessible through flexible programs such as:
• Health Savings Accounts (HSA) / Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA): Most neuropathy therapies qualify.
• Interest-free payment plans: Spread the cost of care over several months.
• Multi-session packages: Discounted rates for patients completing a full treatment series.
• Family plans: Reduced pricing when multiple family members receive care.
Our team will review all options so financial concerns never prevent you from getting the help you need.
5. Why Some Neuropathy Therapies Are Considered “Alternative”
Insurance companies often move slower than medical science. Treatments such as red-light therapy and regenerative medicine have strong clinical backing, but policy updates take time.
That’s why many patients choose to combine covered services (like testing and follow-up visits) with out-of-pocket therapies that accelerate healing. The result is faster, more complete relief — and greater long-term savings compared to years of medication or surgery.
6. Maximizing Your Benefits
Here are practical ways to make the most of your insurance coverage:
- Bring your insurance card and ID to your first appointment.
- Ask about pre-authorization — some plans require it for diagnostics.
- Keep all receipts and treatment notes in case your plan allows retroactive claims.
- Use HSA/FSA funds before year-end to avoid losing unused balances.
- Request itemized statements from our office for easy reimbursement filing.
We also provide digital copies of invoices and progress summaries upon request for your convenience.
7. Our Commitment to Transparency
At Premier Health Institute, we don’t believe in financial surprises. Every patient receives a written explanation of benefits before treatment begins. If your insurance changes during your care, our team re-verifies coverage immediately to avoid interruptions.
We partner with patients, not insurance companies, to ensure decisions are made based on what’s best for your health, not just what’s covered on paper.
8. Frequently Asked Insurance Questions
Do you accept Medicare or private insurance?
Yes, we accept most major carriers and will confirm participation at the time of scheduling.
Can I use my insurance for diagnostic testing only?
Absolutely. Many patients start with covered diagnostics before adding supplemental therapies.
Will I know the cost before starting?
Yes. All fees are explained clearly in writing during your first visit.
Can you help me file for out-of-network reimbursement?
Yes. We provide itemized documentation to simplify submission and follow-up.
9. Healing Should Be Accessible
We understand that neuropathy treatment is an important investment in your health and independence. That’s why we go above and beyond to make care affordable and stress-free — from verifying coverage to providing financing that fits your budget.
