Good Faith Estimate Notice
Private Pay clients have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health 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 expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a 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.

Use Your Insurance Benefits!

In-Network Billing

When you’ve been referred to us directly (instead of attending a consultation) from an insurer with whom your provider is contracted, we will bill your insurance directly for your therapy. You will be responsible for paying us, according to our Informed Consent, for any fees your insurance doesn’t cover.

Alma Client Insurance & EAP Billing

When you submit a consultation request through the Alma website (to work with one of our providers who is credentialed through Alma with your insurer or EAP), we contract with Alma to have them bill your insurance or EAP directly for your therapy. You will be responsible for paying us, according to our Informed Consent, for any fees your insurance or EAP doesn’t cover. Link to your provider’s Alma profile from their profile on this website to see if they’re in-network with your insurer or EAP.

Out-of-Network Billing

If you want to use your PPO (Preferred Provider Organization) or POS (Point of Service) out-of-network insurance benefits, please note the following:

  1. We recommend that you contact your insurance carrier for information on their superbill process and reimbursement rates prior to beginning therapy with us. Click here to download a form to make speaking with your insurance company EASY!
  2. You will be responsible for paying us, according to our Informed Consent, regardless of your anticipated insurance reimbursement.
  3. We will provide you with a monthly superbill, upon written request, for possible reimbursement – directly to you – from your insurance carrier. To obtain a Superbill Request form, please contact your therapist directly and they will send it to you through your confidential Client Portal in our TheraNest EHR.
