What to Ask Your Insurance Provider Before Starting Counseling
You may have in or out-of network benefits you can use, please check your policy carefully and ask the following questions to your insurance provider:
Do I have mental health or behavioral health benefits?
What is my deductible and has it been met?
How many mental health sessions does my insurance plan cover per year?
How much does my plan cover for an out-of-network mental health provider?
What types of sessions are covered?
How do I obtain reimbursement for therapy with an out-of-network provider?
What is the coverage amount per therapy session?
Is pre-approval required before I seek mental health care, and what are the pre-approval requirements?
Out of Network Coverage
Briargrove Family Counseling Center, PLLC may be considered a provider for your out-of-network coverage for mental health counseling/psychotherapy services. This means that you will pay for your counseling and request a reimbursement from your insurance company. For your reimbursement request, a “Super Bill” will be provided to you upon request. A Super Bill is a special receipt which includes specific information insurance companies require in order to consider requests for reimbursement or requests that your charges be counted toward your deductible. It is important to know that reimbursement is not guaranteed as not all insurance companies will reimburse you, or they may not reimburse you for the full cost of the service(s) provided.
GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical 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 bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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/nosurpris
