Good Faith Estimate
Under the No Surprises Act, 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 one 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.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or email [email protected]
Insurance
Intentionally, I am an out of network (OON) provider as I believe in prioritizing meaningful and lasting relationships with my clients, and not being limited by the restraints and restrictions of insurance companies.
I provide superbills to any clients who would like to use out of network benefits and would like to submit receipts (superbills) to your insurance company,
If you are planning to use insurance for reimbursement, I strongly encourage you to reach out to your insurance company and ask about their reimbursement policy and rates before your first session.
Below are some helpful questions to ask your insurance company to help determine how much of the cost of therapy will be covered:
- What are my out-of-network mental health/behavioral health benefits?
- What is my deductible and how much of it have I met?
- Do I need pre-authorization or a referral to obtain mental health/behavioral health services?
- What is the coverage amount per therapy session (CPT/procedure codes: initial appointment – 90791, individual therapy – 90834 (45 min) or 90837 (55 min), and couples/family psychotherapy – 90847)?
- What is the process for pursuing reimbursement?
- Are there any limitations to services (i.e., number of sessions, cap on how much can be spent, reimbursements for only certain diagnoses, etc.)?
- Do my benefits cover telehealth services?
