Insurance and Payment

Navigating the financial aspects of mental health care can feel overwhelming, but we’re here to support you every step of the
way. We believe in transparent communication to help you make informed decisions about your well-being.

Understanding Insurance

We recognize that deciphering insurance coverage can be a complex process. Our goal is to simplify this for you.

Out-of-Network Provider:
Our practitioners are not in-network with any insurance providers, including Medicare and Medicaid. If your plan lacks out-of-network benefits, it may not cover services with us. It’s essential to verify your plan’s specifics to understand your coverage.

Next Steps

If you have out-of-network benefits, here’s how the process generally works:

Deductible

You’ll pay the full cost of your sessions until your deductible is
met. This amount varies by plan.

Reimbursement

After meeting your deductible, your insurance may reimburse a portion of the session costs, based on your plan’s reimbursement rate.

We understand that financial considerations are a significant part of your mental health journey. Our team is here to assist you in navigating these aspects with clarity and compassion, ensuring you can focus on what truly matters—your well-being.

Understanding Insurance

We understand how challenging it can be to determine if or how your insurance will pay for your treatment.  We hope the information below will make the process a little easier.

We are an Out-Of-Network provider

Our practitioners are not in network with any insurance providers. If your insurance plan does not have Out-Of-Network coverage, then it won’t cover your visits with us. That includes Medicare, Medicaid, and Medicaid Managed Care Plans. Please be sure to know what kind of plan you have and if you only have insurance with in-network providers.

If you aren’t sure if you have Out-Of-Network coverage, here’s how to find out

Call the number on the back of your insurance card and ask the following questions:

  1. Do I have Out-Of-Network benefits for mental health services?
  2. Do I have a deductible for Out-Of-Network mental health services?
  3. What is the reimbursement rate for mental health services? (The usual rate for this is 50%-80%).
  4. What is the approved visit cost for mental health services?

Answering these important questions first can help save you time when signing up with us because you’ll already have that pertinent information available if you choose to move on with one of our clinicians for your specific treatment needs.

If your insurance covers Out-Of-Network visits, this is how it usually works out

Every plan and provider is different, but many plans with Out-Of-Network coverage have a deductible and provide reimbursement for the cost of our services.

The deductible is the upfront amount you have to pay until your insurance can begin reimbursing you. When you start coming to see us, you pay for the full cost of your visits up front until you’ve met your deductible. This amount is different for every plan.

Once you hit that amount, your insurance will start pitching in. They’ll reimburse you for a percentage of the cost of your visits.

That percentage varies by plan, but usually, the amount is around 50-80% of their “approved visit cost” or “customary amount” for a session. That approved amount may or may not be as much as the actual cost of the visit.

For example, if your therapist charges $200 per session but your insurance plan’s “approved visit cost” is only $150 per session, they will only reimburse you 50%-80% of $150.

You’ll pay the full amount to the office, and your insurance company will send you a reimbursement check in the mail.
