Insurance
** PLEASE NOTE: I only accept fee for service clients. Payment is due at the time of service. If you want to submit claims to your insurance for possible reimbursement, I am able to give you a ‘superbill’, which is basically an invoice with all of the information that the insurance company requires. You will then send the superbill to your insurer and if they are going to reimburse part or all of your session cost, payment will be sent directly to you. Please understand, insurance companies must have a diagnosis in order to process your claim. So if you want to submit claims for reimbursement, you will have a mental health diagnosis within your medical records. This requirement is true for all medical providers. You need to assess for yourself how you feel about this.
Filing claims/reimbursement
I am considered an out-of-network provider. You may have out-of-network benefits that will pay all or part of your costs, and your insurer should be able to clarify this for you. Please contact your provider to verify how your plan compensates you for ‘out of network behavioral health’ services. I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:
• Does my health insurance plan include out-of-network mental health benefits?
• Do I have a separate out-of-network deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
• Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
• Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered? Or, do I need a prior authorization before beginning services? (Given by the insurer to you).
Please be advised that I have no control over what your insurance company does with your health information once it is in their hands and I assume no responsibility for how that information is managed after it leaves my office.
Payment
I accept cash, local check and all major credit cards as forms of payment. Payment is due at the time of service. Please note, there is a $25.00 fee for all returned checks.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you may be charged for the full rate of the session.
