It depends on your plan, and the answer may surprise you. Some insurance plans do cover dry needling, and we verify your specific benefits before your first visit so you know exactly what to expect. Don’t assume you’ll be paying out of pocket until we check.
How Insurers Classify Dry Needling
Dry needling is billed using procedure codes for intramuscular stimulation or trigger point needling. At Full Swing Healthcare, Dr. Cody Muren and Dr. Eric Hall perform dry needling under their chiropractic licenses. Depending on your plan, the claim may be routed through your chiropractic benefit or through physical medicine and rehabilitation, and that classification directly affects what you owe.
We contact your insurer directly, confirm how they categorize the service under your specific plan, and give you a clear picture of your out-of-pocket cost before you ever walk through our door.
What Happens When Your Plan Doesn’t Cover It
No coverage? No problem. Self-pay rates are straightforward, and we also offer split billing when your plan covers chiropractic but not dry needling. The adjustment portion goes through insurance; the needling portion is billed at the self-pay rate. You pay only for what isn’t covered, not the entire visit.
