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. 

Visit our billing and insurance page for more information.

  18. My goal was to get my DBS stimulation adjusted so it was less painful to turn on, yet still be effective. She adjusted my DBS so it was barely noticeable to turn on, (totally pain free, & effective) She hugely exceeded any expectations I conceived possible. She said she was using new software from Boston Scientific which enabled her to view 2 different data sources simultaneously. Regardless of reasons, she accomplished stupendously good results for me.
