Insurance Options
We accept Insurances, but they don’t always accept us.
Health and Wellness Coaching is an emerging field in Health Care. Currently the National Board of Health & Wellness Coaches and other entities are working to make Health & Wellness Coaching a universally covered benefit.
Through research and data collection, these organizations have managed to bring Health & Wellness Coaching to the attention of many care providers. As such, temporary billing codes and taxonomies have been created to allow opportunities for coverage. Keep reading to explore opportunities.
Our Rates are Often Cheaper than Copays. Just Saying.
We have priced our services to be affordable with or without insurance to offset the cost. By doing so, our rates are often lower than the copay required by insurance or third-party providers. We encourage you to explore every option to make coaching accessible for you.
We will gladly assist with gaining coverage for services, however the process can be tedious. If approved, often times you may be reimbursed for previous out of pocket expenses.
Be sure to check the Spring Health Option below to see if your current coverage is already eligible for services.

HSA/FSA Accounts and Reimbursement
Laws governing HSA/FSA Accounts and Reimbursement criteria do not automatically allow for Health & Wellness Coaching and related services to be a covered expense for HSA/FSA accounts. However, guidance has been issued that allows for these expenditures and reimbursements with the proper documentation.
We can help you with the necessary documentation to use your HSA/FSA to cover costs of most services.
