Insurance and Fees
Using Insurance
I am currently in the process of applying to several insurance panels, such as Blue Cross Blue Shield, Tufts Health Plan, and Harvard Pilgrim. Once I am credentialed, this section will be updated.
In-Network
Your portion of the fee for each therapy session will either be a copay, payment towards your deductible, or co-insurance.
You can verify these amounts by calling the phone number on your insurance card and asking about your mental health benefits.
Out-of-Network
You are responsible for payment at the time of service.
Depending on whether your policy offers out-of-network coverage, your insurer may reimburse you a portion of each visit. I will provide you with documentation to submit for reimbursement.
Questions for Your Insurance Company
To find out how much coverage your insurance provides, you can ask the following questions:
-
Does the policy include mental health benefits?
-
How much will insurance cover and how much will I be responsible for paying?
-
Do I have a deductible to meet? If so, how much of that have I met so far?
-
Do I have coverage for outpatient psychotherapy with an out-of-network provider?
-
For out-of-network coverage, does the insurance company pay a percentage of the provider’s fee or a predefined allowable amount?
-
How many psychotherapy sessions does my insurance plan authorize per calendar year?
