Insurance

Insurance is not accepted at this practice. However, if your policy has out-of-network benefits you may be able to file a claim with your insurance company. Please be aware that all mental health insurance claims require inclusion of a diagnosis that meets the insurance company's "medical necessity criteria" (i.e., the client must have received a diagnosis of a mental health disorder).

This out of network claim is processed by you and your provider can provide you with a superbill. Feel free to call your insurance company and inquire about your coverage.

It is understandable that many people desire to use their behavioral health insurance benefits. However, after much consideration our providers have decided to discontinue being on insurance provider networks. The reasons for this include in part:

  • Use of insurance increases the likelihood that the confidentiality of private client information may be breached during the process of filing insurance claims and receiving payments.

  • Insurance policies require that the client's problem or issue being addressed through therapy meet the insurance company's "medical necessity criteria ." This means that the client must be given a psychiatric diagnosis for insurance benefits to apply. Having a psychiatric diagnosis can have unanticipated consequences (e.g., interfering with employment in certain types of jobs, being accepted for life insurance coverage, etc.).

  • Most insurance policies have such high deductibles that clients in typical out-patient counseling never meet their policy's annual deductible and as a result the policy never actually pays for any of the counseling services. However, if claims were filed with the insurance company (to be applied toward the deductible) the client would still have a history of a psychiatric diagnosis.

  • For example, when Federal laws change in ways that affect insurance companies these changes are typically then passed on to healthcare providers in the form of lower reimbursement.
