Happy New Year!

I hope 2025 is treating you all well!

I'm sure we can all agree that there are a few guarantees in life and change is one of them. We count our blessings and keep that flow of gratitude stoked.

When the changes are uncomfortable, whether its our health, family, or livelihood, we strive to live in Grace. There is no better gift than to be surrounded by people that care for you and have the tools to support our journeys.

Transitions are the most common stressors in people's lives and pain or health complications can increase potential challenges to adapting and staying centered in our own personal Joy and celebrating life and the lives around us.

The purpose of The WellBridge Clinic has always been to support people's health so they can live their best possible lives. We will continue to do so, but it will look different.

Read on for some important announcements and be sure to get scheduled for that stress relief, injury recovery, pain management, and keeping up with your friendly neighborhood "bio-electrician."

There are some important changes happening in the Clinic this month. I'm happy and sad to announce that the clinic is restructuring. We are no longer able to sustain an 'employee model' clinic with frontdesk staff and multiple acupuncturists.

Dr. John (that's me) is still seeing patients. Patients are welcome to transfer over to my schedule. If you have been working with Britt, or Brad you are invited to schedule with me for continuity of care, ease of insurance billing, and decades of experience. Check out my Bio here if you would like to learn more about me. Click here to schedule online.

It was a painful decision to change the clinic and I have toiled over it for the last couple years. Unfortunately, insurance payments have continuously gone down and costs have skyrocketed.

Growing our amazing clinical and admin teams has always been a dream of mine and I'm sad to say goodbye.

My purpose has always been to help more people as a doctor-healer and I'm excited to focus on my purpose of helping more people get better and stay better.

In this transition we will be welcoming an amazing group of psychiatrists and therapists to join the clinic. You can read about them here: https://prismawellness.com/

We will be announcing other providers that will join the practice in the months to come.

Important Insurance Updates

Insurance can change every year. Keep up with your insurance benefits and get your new insurance information in before your appointments. Email insurance updates with a photo of the front and back of your insurance card to: frontdesk@wellbridgeclinic.com

What you need to know:

• Firstly, we STILL bill insurance.
• Be sure to check your insurance benefits. Use our "Insurance Benefits Checklist"...reply to this email if you need a checklist).
• We do not check insurance benefits. Our biller has been advising us to stop for years.
• We no longer collect Copays/Co-Insurance at your visit. Our insurance biller "EMBS" will send you an invoice for any patient responsibility that is required by your insurance company. Again, our biller strongly advised us to stop this process.
• Forgive us for any inconvenience. This will protect you. If we check insurance benefits, you have no recourse to appeal insurance companies. If you check, then you can appeal.

We continue to bill most health insurance plans, car insurance and worker’s comp claims after accidents or injuries.

Who do you know that could us a little “Zen”, less pain, fewer headaches, and recover from injuries quicker?  

Ask them: “Have you tried acupuncture yet?”

Remember, Health Care without Acupuncture is like building a house without an Electrician!

You can always Schedule an appointment today. Call 503-544-9611.

In Health,

Dr. John Rybak, DAc.
