Insurance
I am paneled with several insurance companies. Please contact me directly for more information on if your insurance company qualifies. If it does, please bring your insurance card to your first session and be prepared to pay for that session out of pocket.
In the event I am not contracted with your insurance company, but you have a PPO plan with them, I am able to submit claims on your behalf. Once again, please bring your card to your first session. If neither of the above situations applies to you, but you will still like to pursue reimbursement with your insurance on your own, please let me know and I will provide you a superbill.
No matter what your circumstance, I always recommend a call to your insurance company to check your coverage for my services. As you speak with your insurance company, some potential questions to ask are listed below:
- Does my medical insurance include any mental health coverage for out of network, outpatient providers?
- If yes, do I have an out of network deductible and how much of that deductible have I satisfied so far this year?
- After my deductible has been satisfied, how many mental health visits are covered in the calendar year?
- Are my visits covered in full or does my insurance simply cover a percentage?
- Does my insurance require a referral from my primary care physician?
- What specific documentation does my insurance company require for me to be reimbursed? (Please be as detailed as possible)
