WHAT IS SO GREAT ABOUT SELF-PAY?

• When you self-pay, your treatment is private and doesn't require the disclosure of sensitive information to an insurance company. Insurance companies use diagnostic codes to determine coverage, so a diagnosis is required for reimbursement.

• Clients who self-pay have the freedom to choose their own provider. You can choose anyone you believe would be the best fit for your needs, whether they're in-network or out-of-network.

• There are no limitations to the number of therapy sessions you receive or any authorizations required for services. You get to decide how often you’d like to meet with your therapist.

• Billing with insurance can be a hassle. Insurance companies can sometimes delay payments and reject claims. As a self-paying client, you’re directly managing how much you spend and when you spend it.

SUPERBILLS:

If I am not credentialed with your insurance provider, you may have the option to utilize out-of-network benefits. That means you will pay the full self-pay rate for therapy sessions and I will provide a superbill (receipt) for each date of service to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Superbills require a diagnosis. Please note that you are responsible for checking if your benefits include reimbursement for out-of-network mental health providers AND submitting superbills to your insurance provider.
