Insurance & Reimbursement

I am an out-of-network provider and do not participate directly with any insurance company. This means you will pay directly for services and I will provide statements that contain all the necessary information in order for you to submit the receipt to your insurance company, Health Savings Account or Flexible Savings Account if you are seeking reimbursement. My services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. However, this is between you and your insurance company.

Before scheduling your first appointment, please check your coverage carefully to be certain of your terms and reimbursement rates. For those wishing to be reimbursed by their insurance for individual treatment, the following questions will help you determine your benefits:

• Do I have out-of-network benefits?

• If so, what percentage is covered?

• Do I have a deductible?

• How do I submit a request for reimbursement?

• What is the reimbursement for CPT code 90834 (45 minute session)?

• Is there a different reimbursement rate for in-person vs. tele-therapy appointments?

While Health Savings Accounts reimburse for couples/relationship therapy, some insurers do not. In addition to asking about out-of-network benefits, the specific question for insurers related to relationship therapy is:

• What is reimbursement for CPT code 90847 with diagnosis code Z63.0, “Relationship distress with spouse or intimate partner”

Assistance with Reimbursment

Although you can submit your out of network claims for free to your insurance company, some people may prefer paying a small fee to a company called Reimbursify who will submit your claims for you and make it easier to navigate insurance issues. I have no financial relationship to this company and have not vetted their privacy and confidentiality policies regarding medical information you may share with them.
