All Things Billing...
My intention is to make my services affordable for you while also getting paid fairly for my time and expertise.
Insurance
As of October 1st, 2026 I am credentialed with Presbyterian and Blue Cross Blue Shield plans in New Mexico.
- Medicaid
- Blue Cross Blue Shield Plans
- Presbyterian
- Medicare (July 2027)
Co-pays will be due at time of service and a valid credit card will be required to be on file.
Appointments
Appointments are 15, 30 and 60 minutes depending on need -which we can determine in conversation. Initial 15 minute phone consultations are free to determine if we are a good fit to work together.
I am a one-woman shop, and all labs, imaging and medications may take me a few days to complete. I ask for your patience and to plan ahead for medication refill requests.
Self-Pay/Sliding Scale
For those who are not insured or have a plan I do not accept, I accept cash and credit with the following honesty and time-based sliding scale:
Do you
Own your home or have a mortgage, live in a two-income household, have investments, retirement accounts, or inherited money, travel recreationally or work part-time by choice? $250/hDo you
Work an equivalent of full-time and/or are paid a median salary, rent your home and still have extra available for ordinary recreational activities such as dinners out, concerts, or other paid events? $185/h
Do youLive on a fixed-income or government support (with proof) with limited additional financial resources where paying more would be a true hardship? $100/h
Do none of these fit the bill? Let's talk. I am reasonable and approachable.
What you get...
Normally, the type of care I provide is not covered by insurance.
- Lengthy Appointments
- Integration of Functional, Herbal and Nutritional Support to your care plan.
- A very experienced, caring provider who you can get in to see in a timely manner.
- Not a lot of red tape or barriers of communication.
