Good Faith Estimate Statement: 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 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

Insurance

At your request, I will provide you with receipts (a superbill) for your sessions, if you wish to seek out-of-network reimbursement through your insurance provider. Please note that your insurance provider will not cover the cost of non-treatment related fees, and they also may not cover the cost of treatment if they don’t deem it medically necessary. Documentation of medical necessity typically includes a psychiatric diagnosis and ongoing evidence of how it affects your functioning on a daily basis. Additionally, they may require proof and details of progress in order to continue treatment coverage. You may also want to confirm the type and length of treatment that they may cover. 

You will be responsible for filing with your insurance company if you are seeking out of network reimbursement. HSA (Health Savings Account) and FSA (Flexible Spending Account) cards are accepted and some EAP (Employee Assistance Programs) and insurance companies may cover mental health treatment. Specifically, I have a contract with the Spring Health EAP programs in OK, NY, and UT.

Payment

Individual therapy and consultation fees are due at the time of appointment. Fees for groups, protocols, and workshops are due at the time of registration. Credit/debit cards are accepted for payment of fees.

Cancellation Policy

If you must miss your appointment you will be billed for the fee of the missed session, unless the appointment is cancelled at least 24 hours in advance. Your fee will be waived in cases of serious illness or serious emergency. I respect and value the therapeutic relationship, and I value your time as well as mine. If you need to be elsewhere, I am understanding and encourage you to be there.
