Insurance and Billing

I am not an in-network provider with any insurance plans. This means that you pay the fee for services directly on the day of service.

However, I will provide you with appropriate documentation (a “Superbill”) for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Typically, most insurance plans have out-of-network benefits to help cover the cost of specialists and out-of-network providers.

I highly recommend you contact you insurance company and check on your out-of-network benefits. Some helpful questions to ask your insurance:

  1. What are my benefits for mental health treatment?

  2. Does my plan offer any out-of-network benefits for mental and behavioral health?

  3. What percentage will I be reimbursed for psychological services from an out-of-network provider?

  4. Do I have a deductible, and has it been met?

  5. How many therapy sessions does my plan cover?

  6. Is there a difference in coverage for telehealth services?

  7. How much will I be reimbursed when I see an out-of-network mental health provider?

  8. Do I need prior approval or a referral in order to be reimbursed?

  9. What is my co-payment (if applicable)?

  10. What is the time limit to submit a receipt (“superbill”) for reimbursement of services?

Common procedure (CPT) codes refer to the type of service you receive.
