Private Pay

Individuals who choose to pay privately benefit from fewer restrictions (i.e., insurance companies may limit the frequency of appointments and duration of treatment), as well as greater information privacy. In order for treatment to go through insurance companies, they require us to share certain information with them. Private pay is also a great option if I do not accept your insurance.

Insurance

In-Network

I am in-network with the following insurances:

• Blue Cross Blue Shield (HMO, PPO, & Indemnity)

Out-Of-Network

I am an out-of-network provider for all other insurances. Many insurance plans offer out of network mental health care benefits and will reimburse you a percentage of the cost of our sessions. Contact your insurance provider to request specific information about your plan’s coverage, reimbursement rate, and deductible. I can provide you with a master bill for therapy sessions which includes treatment information so that you can receive partial reimbursement for services if your insurance offers it. If this is the case, you would be paying me the full fee for the session and the insurance companies would reimburse you.

Questions to ask your insurance company:

• Do I have out-of-network benefits for behavioral health?

• If so, what is the percentage covered?

• Is there a deductible I need to meet before that percentage is covered?

• Is there a session limit?

• How do I submit for reimbursement?

• What is the reimbursement for the codes: 90791 (diagnostic session), 90834 (45-minute session), 90837 (53+ minute session)?
  

DISCLOSURES

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

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 bill for medical items and services.

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

• Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

• 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.
