Whitman-Walker Health: Accepted Insurance

We are pleased to provide the following information to highlight commercial and public insurance plans that Whitman-Walker Health accepts. Whitman-Walker continuously reviews our insurance relationships to ensure that we are accessible to our patients and the community.   

We are proud to offer help from our Public Benefits and Insurance Navigation Team to discuss your health insurance options and enroll you in insurance if you are eligible or assist with problems you may be experiencing. Call 202.745.6151

If we do not participate in your insurance plan, you will be responsible for the full fee for your services. It’s important to note that you may have out-of-network benefits allowing you to seek reimbursement from your insurance plan for the fees that you pay WWH. Call your insurance plan’s customer service to find out more. 

We provide this list as a resource to help you determine whether we accept your specific health insurance plan.  This list is not exhaustive.  We encourage you to contact your insurance company if you have any questions about whether your specific health insurance plan will be accepted.  You will be responsible for any out-of-pocket costs associated with your insurance.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR ANYONE WITH INSURANCE THAT WWH DOES NOT ACCEPT:

  • While we will bill your insurance company, you should be aware that your cost sharing may be significantly higher as Whitman-Walker Health will likely be treated as “Out of Network”. Therefore, it is entirely possible that your out-of-pocket costs may be 70-85%, depending on the specific plan. 
  • Please note that you have NO “Out of Network” benefits if you are enrolled in a Medicaid MCO that we do not accept or are enrolled in a Kaiser Health Plan. You would therefore be responsible for the full payment of services at WWH. We therefore encourage you to find an in-network provider.
  • WWH contracts with LabCorp to provide our internal lab services. Even if WWH does not accept your insurance, LabCorp might do so, therefore, please provide your insurance card to the Client Services team so LabCorp can directly bill your insurance.
