Pay from The Heart is a community centered sliding scale model built around mutual care and thriving for all. After thoughtfully considering your financial situation and the value of care, you can choose a rate for your acupuncture sessions that best aligns with your specific circumstances and needs. This structure provides Meg and Corey with the flexibility to sustain their practice, ensuring they can continue to offer the attention and care you deserve.
There are very slight variations in fees, marked M for Meg, and C for Corey, and you and your practitioner will discuss your options during your first appointment. Your initial appointment will be an hour and a half to two hours ($195M/$185C), and includes intake, history, physical exam and acupuncture treatment.
You will be able to choose from three rates for your follow up sessions.
Sustainable Sweet Spot=$118M/$122C
This is the rate that allows Corey and Meg to move beyond the costs of keeping the doors open, to meet your needs and earn a living that supports them and those who depend on them. This is the amount they need to earn to continue to grow their practice.
I Am Glad you Are Here – $90
This is the rate that allows Meg and Corey to cover their expenses and to stay in operation. This enables them to pay rent at Crossings, supplies, and the other necessary expenses of staying open. It is the minimum rate they can accept for the hour we spend together.
We are Together/Community Care – $150M/$147C
At this rate, Meg and Corey are able to sustain their practice and grow their business, expand their offerings and support our community. Paying this rate allows them to offer more care for patients who are unable to pay the Sustainable Sweet Spot rate and may even allow them to offer subsidized care for folks who are unable to meet the minimum rate. This rate also allows them to offer community events like free ear acupuncture clinics and educational events.
How Does This Work?
Your first appointment (which typically lasts 1.5-2 hours) costs $195M/$185C. After that appointment, you will choose your rate that will be in place until July 1, 2025. On July 1, 2025, (and every six months after that) you will have an opportunity to make adjustments. Of course, in these challenging times, if a situation arises suddenly that would require you to revisit your choice sooner, reach out to Corey or Meg. You are in it together.
