Health Insurance
Peregrine Therapy is considered in-network with Premera, Regence, other BlueShield / BlueCross plans, Cigna, and Aetna (including Meritain). Peregrine is able to bill most insurance companies directly, even if your insurance company will consider Peregrine Therapy an out-of-network provider. Peregrine will check your insurance benefits for you and apprise you of them before evaluation or therapy.
Insurance plans vary widely (even within the same insurance company) for the degree of coverage for services. Some plans may reimburse at the same rate for in-network and out-of-network providers, some may reimburse at a lesser rate for out-of-network services, and some may not reimburse at all. Please note that estimates provided by your insurance company are not a guarantee of payment, and you are responsible for therapy fees even if insurance claims are denied. A therapy fee schedule is available upon request.
You may also choose to submit insurance claims to your insurance company yourself. In this event. you will be provided with a “superbill,” which is a document that lists dates and location of service, types of service provided, and medical diagnoses. You would submit this to your insurance company and they would reimburse you directly for services for the amount allowed by your plan for covered services.
