Out of Network Insurance
If your insurance is not listed, I do not submit claims to your insurance company. However, many insurance companies cover a percentage of services with out-of-network providers. Please contact your insurance company and ask the following:
- Do I have out-of-network behavioral or mental health benefits?
- What is my out-of-network deductible? Has it been met?
- Is there a yearly limit to the number of sessions or total amount that is reimbursable?
- What are the reimbursement rates for an Initial Intake session, 45 minute session, 60 minute session, or family session?
- Do I need pre-certification or pre-authorization, or a referral from my doctor?
- What form do I need to submit claims, and where do I send it?
You will be provided with receipts that you may be able to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
Payment
I accept Credit or Debit card, or Health Savings Account, or cash payments.
Payment in full is expected at the time of service.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you may be charged for the late cancellation fee.
Always communicate with the therapist regarding your need to cancel due to unexpected events.
Inclement weather policy: If you or the therapist are unable to attend due to bad weather, every effort will be made to reschedule your session within the same week. No late cancellation fee will be charged for sessions missed due to bad weather conditions.
Any Other Questions
Please contact me for any additional questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!
Notice of Good Faith Estimates
You are entitled to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. This is under the federal law enacted 1/1/22 called The No Surprises Act, Title 45, section 149.610.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service or at any time during treatment.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
