Please call the office at 360-788-5866 for our current rates for 'time of service' fees (this applies to services for which no additional billing tasks are required, such as PIP claims). We offer this as a courtesy, and not as a requirement.
Retroactive insurance billing is NOT available to patients who choose to pay the discounted 'time of service' fee schedule. Insurance billing rates vary according to the length of your consultation, the medical complexity of your case, the length of your treatment and additional services provided to you.
We do not bill for Out-Of-Network Carriers. We are willing, upon request, to provide you with the documentation you need to be reimbursed by your insurer (this is called a "superbill").
COVID-19 UPDATE - INFOGRAPHIC, POLICIES & PROCEDURES (7/2020)
COVID-19 RISK INDEX
As Whatcom County transitions into Phase II of the Washington State COVID-19 re-opening plan, Active Points Wellness continues to expand clinical care for patients. We understand this is a challenging time for many as we navigate the risks associated with activities outside of our home.
I wanted to share the above infographic regarding risk levels for exposure by activity. This was developed by Professor Saskia Popescu, an infectious disease epidemiologist at the University of Arizona, Dr. James P. Phillips, MD, the Chief of Disaster Medicine at GWU Emergency Medicine, and Ezekiel Emanual, a Special Advisor to the Director General of the World Health Organization. Download PDF here.
I find the breakdown of four main factors: space, duration, crowd size and forceful exhalation - to be particularly helpful in assessing risks associated with activities. Please take a moment to review this infographic and share it with friends, family and loved ones.
