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.

I started getting migraine headaches in the fourth grade By the time I reached my late 20s, the occasional migraine turned in to a chronic, everyday pain level between 7 and 10. Dr. Hutchison has been so supportive and has the best bedside manner I could ever ask for. Dr. Hutchison is attentive and personable. She asks questions and listens to the answers.
