8. Cost: <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nCurrently, Prolotherapy is not covered by many insurance companies. There are some cases in which people may get their insurance company to pay for it, but it takes a little bit of negotiating and is not currently a wide-spread practice done. Therefore, you can expect to spend about $150-$1,000 per treatment. Payment is typically expected at the time of appointment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
If research and studies continue to show support, I can strongly imagine that within the next five to ten years, this becoming accepted by insurance companies for coverage… similarly to how acupuncture <\/a>(another complementary, alternative medicine practice) was accepted to be covered by insurance companies within the last about five years when it wasn\u2019t before.\u00a0 The cost is going to be a deterrent for some people out there; especially with the disappointment of potentially having their insurance deny the claim.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\nMake sure you negotiate with your insurance company\u2026 showing them research trials with 85%-95% success rates, and the like. Ultimately, it is up to you to determine if it is worth the cost to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\r\n
