In Preparation for Your Visit
See What to Expect. Book your first appointment here. Bring samples or a list of your current supplements to your initial visit to assess how they may be contributing to your health goals.
Our objective is to give you valuable, life changing information and services that will support your health for years to come. These longer visits allow time for the doctor to implement her unique multifaceted approach that includes gentle instrument adjustments, emotional, energetic and myofascial components, along with chemical (nutritional, toxin and allergen) assessments. Dr. Lipat does their best to provide you with value through striving for lasting results in a minimal number of visits.
Insurance
Because Dr. Lipat offers unique intuitive guidance, energy work and lifestyle consultation services outside the traditional medical framework, Dr. Lipat generally does not work with insurance except as outline below. Payment is expected at the time the service is provided. We provide you with a receipt so that you can pursue reimbursement with your insurance company should they provide coverage for out of network chiropractic services. We only accept HMSA PPO & HMO w/ referral (excluding Quest, EUTF, ASH) and HMAA. We do not accept insurance assignment with any other carrier and Dr. Chris Lipat DC takes no responsibility for reimbursement. Send each receipt in separately along with your insurance company’s claim form.
We do not accept Auto Insurance MedPay (no ‘third party’ insurance or ‘liens’) or Workers Compensation. We accept:
As a small office, we choose to focus on the patient 100%, rather than get bogged down in insurance limitations and paperwork. Much of what we do is prevention: addressing subclinical conditions and taking the time to teach you how to take care of your body. Insurance companies only fund procedures of “medical necessity” and tend not to support chiropractic care beyond a certain number of visits.
For Medicare purposes, “Maintenance therapy includes services that seek to prevent disease, promote health and promote and enhance quality of life, or maintain or prevent deterioration of a chronic condition. When further clinical improvement cannot reasonably be expected from continuous ongoing care, and the chiropractic treatment becomes supportive rather than corrective in nature, the treatment is then considered maintenance therapy.” All treatment at Dr. Chris Lipat DC is maintenance care. Dr. Chris Lipat DC does NOT bill Medicare for maintenance care. You are responsible for paying for all care received at Dr. Chris Lipat DC whether or not Medicare decides to reimburse you.
Retail Sales
Dr. Lipat carefully selects professional grade nutritional products, not sold directly to the public, because of their high quality and efficacy. Most commercial products are of poor quality or of limited potency. No patient is required to purchase products from the office; however if you choose to purchase over the counter products, feel free to bring them in for a comparative evaluation.
