Fees & Insurance

Fees

I offer private pay options in addition to in-network and out-of-network insurance options. Some benefits of choosing private pay include not having to share a diagnosis and treatment information with an insurance provider, and also eliminating restrictions (such as frequency or total amount of appointments).

In-Network

I am in-network with the following insurances:

• Aetna

• Blue Cross Blue Shield HMO & PPO

Out-of-Network

I am an out of network provider for all other insurances. Many insurances offer out-of-network mental health care benefits. Please contact your insurance provider directly to learn about the out-of-network benefits available with your plan. Some questions to ask are:

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

• If so, what percentage is covered?

• Is there a session limit, and if so, in what time period?

• Do I have a deductible? What is it and how much of it have I met?

• How do I submit a request for reimbursement?

• What is the reimbursement for CPT code 90791 (diagnostic intake)? 90834 (45-minute session)? 90837 (53+ minute session)?

Good Faith Estimate

As of January 1, 2022 you have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate” to explain the cost of your medical care. Under Federal Law, all health care providers are required to provide an estimated bill of medical services to patients who do not have insurance or who are choosing to not use insurance for the 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 for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

• Take a picture and/or save a copy of the Good Faith Estimate for your personal records.

• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Please note it costs $25 to file a dispute.

• For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate or the dispute process, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.
