• Alternative Therapy Coverage

Alternative therapies, also referred to as Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM), are becoming increasingly popular and accepted in today’s society.

Although popular, they still are not accepted as part of traditional medicine and therefore are for the most part not covered under a healthcare insurance plan.

Alternative therapies include homeopathy, naturopathy, acupuncture, acupressure, holistic healing, hypnosis, spiritual healing, chiropractic therapy, and herbal and vitamin therapies, among others.

If you find these methods appealing more than traditional medicine, you should look into alternative therapy insurance. Typically, these plans are only offered through group health insurance, and only as a discount plan (in which you receive discounted rates for these treatments, but are responsible for the majority of the expense).
