Psychotherapy Appointment, 50 minutes:
$245
**Self-pay psychotherapy has benefits. These beneffits include that your treatment plan is private, and that there is no need to request, justify, or limit the number of sessions you can use to get better.
Please call your mental health plan before scheduling a free consultation.**
It is best to get all of these details before scheduling a no-fee consultation call in order to avoid dissapointment and to avoid delay finding alternative options if they are necessary.
Ask your insurance these questions:
A. Do I have out-of-network or PPO mental health benefits? ________________
B. Does my out-of-network coverage have a separate deductible from my in-network deductible? If so, when does that deductible renew?________________
C. Is there is a per-session reimbursement limit (allowable mount) on visit type 90837 (individual psychotherapy 53 minutes) after which my insurance does not pay a portion of the fee?________________
D. What is the percent of my session that will be paid for?________________
E. I understand that there is usually a separate contact and way that I need to submit insurance claim (Superbill) for out-of-network mental health reimbursment. What are the steps to submit this type of claim? ______________________
F. Is there a mental health company such as Magellan or Optum that I can contact with questions about my claims? What is their phone number in my state? ____________
