Insurance

I am contracted with Highmark Blue Cross BlueShield. Additionally, I am considered in-network with most other BlueCross BlueShield PPO plans. I am considered an out-of-network provider with most other insurance companies.

Therapy services may be covered in full, or in part, by your insurance provider. It’s important that you check your insurance coverage before beginning therapy. Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

  • Do I have mental health insurance benefits?

  • What is my annual deductible and has it been met?

  • Do I need an authorization for outpatient mental health services?

If you are looking to use your out-of-network benefits, please ask these questions as well: 

  • Does my plan have out-of-network benefits?

  • How much does my plan cover for out-of-network providers?

  • What does my insurance plan allow (“reasonable and customary”) for the following codes: 90791 and 90837?

If needed, I am happy to assist you in the reimbursement process.

Good Faith Estimate Information

In accordance with the federal No Surprises Act:

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.

 For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
