GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

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

Do you accept insurance?

We are out-of-Network with most insurance companies. We will supply you with an insurance ready statement that you can submit to your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement.

Here are the 4 main reasons we stay out-of-network with insurance:

1. We can not insure confidentiality: Insurance companies require diagnosis information and other treatment information in order to authorize treatment. Once that is provided by a therapist, the therapist can no longer insure that the information will remain confidential. We allow the relationship and exchange of information to stay between you and your insurance company.

2. Difficulty getting treatment authorized: Sometimes there is a lengthy process involved in getting authorization for treatment. This can cause your treatment to be inconsistent, broken up, and can cause further delays in getting the help you need.

3. Misdiagnosing or over diagnosing in order to get treatment authorized: most insurance companies will not cover treatment unless it is “medically necessary”. This may mean the client has to “pretend” to have a diagnosis in order to receive benefits.

4. Most insurance companies do not cover marriage or family counseling unless it is part of a treatment plan for a more serious mental disorder.
