Patient Forms & Insurance

Insurance and Fees

Dr. Rankin is contracted with Blue Cross of Idaho, Regence Blue Shield of Idaho, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, Mountain Health Co-op, Ameriben, Independent Doctors of Idaho (IDID) and a few Aetna policies. Because there are some policies within these insurances that she is not contracted with it is critical that you contact your insurance provider to see if Dr. Eberharter Rankin is listed as a preferred provider.

Dr. Rankin opted out of Medicare in 2015. This means she cannot bill Medicare or any Medicare Advantage insurance. She is not able to accept Medicaid. If you have Medicare or an out of network insurance you may choose to be seen on a cash basis. After the initial visit, a cash appointment may be done by phone for patients at a distance. The cost of a 1 hour Functional Medicine consult is $300 for the initial visit and $200.00 for appointments thereafter if being seen on a cash basis. Phone follow up appointments on a cash basis are less expensive depending on the duration. All cash appointments must be paid for at the time of the visit. Please be prepared to pay your co-pay at the time of your visit if we will be billing insurance for you. Cash, check or credit /debit cards are all accepted.

Acupuncture visits are billed out as a combination of problem related medical visit and acupuncture. Regence requires a prior authorization for acupuncture, that Dr. Gail can arrange. This way she is familiar with the medical issue being treated prior to the acupuncture. She is happy to discuss the specifics of your situation after reviewing the New Patient packet.
