Session Rates
If you have Out-of-Network Coverage, your insurance company will most likely reimburse you a percentage of the cost or the whole cost of your visits. Reimbursement rates vary and it is encourage that you speak with your insurance provider prior to first session. Majority of clients receive 70%-80% of reimbursements for fees paid. A superbill will be given which will allow you to submit to insurance companies for reimbursement directly to you.

Why Don’t You Take All Insurances?
Without insurance, both the client and the therapist are in more control of the progress of treatment. Insurance will approve a couple sessions at a time, dictating how many sessions are best for a client they’ve never met and symptoms/struggles they don’t understand. With self-pay, the client is in control of the treatment, the therapist, the length of treatment, & what you want out of therapy. Consulting with your therapist on non-psychiatric issues that are important to you that aren’t billable by insurance, such as learning how to cope with life changes, gaining more effective communication techniques for your relationships, increasing personal insight, and developing healthy new skills. Aside from the client not being in control of their care because of their insurance, insurance also requires a diagnosis. With self-pay, your diagnosis will not be listed on a medical record that could follow you into future endeavors.

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 you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400.00 more than your Good Faith Estimate and the pricing provided to you, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
