Insurance

Before scheduling an appointment

  1. Check your network. If you have health insurance,  call your company to find out if the OHSU Health location or provider you plan to visit is part of your network.
  2. Ask what you will pay. Your insurance company can tell you what your costs are likely to be.

If you schedule an appointment and your health insurance does not include OHSU Health, you may have to pay more than if you go to a provider in your insurance network.

  9. Eliza Thompson was just superb. She was right on time and so friendly and welcoming. She did a great job of explaining the procedure very carefully and then so efficiently and without any pain administered the two injections into my very skinny hands which took quite a bit of skill, I'm sure She explained the procedure and what the follow up would be and gave us any information we needed. She was excellent.

  10. Dr Thompson is a very caring doctor. She explains everything so that I understand. She answers all of my questions. When I saw earlier this year I had mentioned that my mom was in the hospital and rehab. This visit she asked how my mom was doing. I thought this was very kind of her.

  19. I wish I had started with Eliza with the beginning of my PMR a year-and-a-half ago. While I do appreciate my current PCP, Eliza knew so much more about this baffling disease. I feel confident that I got complete and helpful information on how to move forward at this stage of things. She asked pertinent questions, listened well, and helped me better understand what I have been going through. She did not doubt my account of things, which was a great comfort.
