Insurance and Superbills
I currently accept Cigna, Optum/United Health Care, Aetna, and Anthem Blue Cross insurance. I utilize an external billing service, Headway, to do my insurance billing.
If covered by another insurance not listed above, I can provide a superbill for possible insurance reimbursement. In order to be eligible for reimbursement, you must have Out of Network (OON) coverage for mental health services. Please contact your insurance representative to confirm these benefits prior to treatment. If using OON benefits, you are responsible for paying the full fee at the time of session and then will need to submit forms to your insurance for them to reimburse you directly. Clients are responsible for confirming insurance benefits and ensuring that information is up to date.
Please be advised that in order to utilize insurance or OON benefits, you must meet criteria for a covered mental health diagnosis, as I must provide them with a diagnosis in order for treatment to be covered.
Good Faith Estimate
You are entitled to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of what the charges could be for psychotherapy services provided to you. While it is not possible for a psychotherapist to know, in advance, how many psychotherapy sessions may be necessary or appropriate for a given person, this form provides an estimate of the cost of services provided. Your total cost of services will depend upon the number of psychotherapy sessions you attend, your individual circumstances, and the type and amount of services that are provided to you.
You have the right to initiate a dispute resolution process if the actual amount charged to you substantially exceeds the estimated charges stated in your Good Faith Estimate (which means $400 or more beyond the estimated charges).
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate or the dispute process, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises. The initiation of the patient-provider dispute resolution process will not adversely affect the quality of the services furnished to you.
