A Note about Insurance

I am an out of network provider for all insurance companies. I am happy to provide a "superbill" upon request which is the document you'll need to submit to your insurance for reimbursement. You are responsible for understanding your out of network benefits and reimbursement rate. I strongly encourage you to contact your insurance provider to determine what services are covered. You can find their phone number on the back of your insurance card.

 

Here are some important questions to consider asking:

  • What are my out of network benefits for outpatient mental health services?

  • Am I limited to a certain number of sessions?

  • How do I submit claims from an out of network provider?

  • Does my deductible apply to out of network services?

    • How much of my deductible has been met for this year? 

Why don't you take insurance?

I want your mental health care and healing journey to be yours. This can be limited by insurance companies who can request that I release private information about you. Similarly, insurance companies often decide what your counseling experience should look like, such as the number of sessions you should have and the type of treatment you receive, even if this doesn't fit with your personal needs. My belief is that you and your therapist should be able to decide what your counseling experience looks like.

Good Faith Estimate

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 your 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.

  • For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or  call 1.800.985.3059. 

Cancellation and Late Policy

If you are unable to attend a scheduled appointment, I kindly request that you cancel with at least 24-hour notice so I can offer that time to another person. With the exception of an unforeseeable circumstance or emergency, appointments canceled with less than 24-hour notice or missed altogether will be charged $70. 

 

If you are running late to your appointment, it is likely that your session will need to be shortened. You will still be charged the full session rate.
