Insurance

Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for services to be covered in full or in part.

Please see the list below of Insurances I am accepting:

  • Tricare West (Prime, Select, Reserve, and Young Adult)
    • Active duty, Retired, and Dependent
  • TriWest and VA
  • Community Care Network
  • Cigna
  • United Health
  • Aetna
  • EverNorth
  • Optum
  • MHN
  • HealthNet

I am also accepting EAP services for Cigna, Optum, EverNorth and United.

If you are enrolled in the above, I’d recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:

  • Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
  • Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it, and have I met it yet?
  • Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
  • Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?

Payment

I accept all major credit cards as forms of payment for deductibles and or cash rates.

Cancellation Policy

If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. I understand unforeseen circumstances can prevent the attendance of a session and the 24-hour notice will not be an option. We can work together in communicating late cancelations and waiving fees. Otherwise, you may be charged a $100 cancelation fee, late cancelation fee, or no-show fee.

Any Other Questions

Please contact me for any additional questions you may have. I look forward to hearing from you!

Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law (“No Surprises Act”), health care providers need to give patients who do NOT have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical services when the estimate is requested. Additional details:

  • You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.
  • Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical services 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 fight to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/ nosurprises or contact your state agency: State of California 916-324-8176 APL 22-011 - No Surprises Act (NSA) Guidance (ca.gov)

A brief explanation of insurance coverage

An explanation of insurance co-pays, co-insurance & deductibles:

Health insurance can be confusing to understand. Insurance companies can take a while to process claims. Most plans have some level of deductible, co-pay or co-insurance.

A deductible is the amount you pay for health care services before your health insurance begins to pay. For example, let’s say your plan’s deductible is $5,000. That means for most services, you’ll pay 100 percent of your medical and pharmacy bills until the amount you pay reaches $5,000. After that, you share the cost with your plan by paying coinsurance and copays.

Coinsurance is your share of the costs of a health care service. It’s usually figured as a percentage of the amount your plan allows to be charged for services. You will start paying coinsurance after you’ve paid your plan’s deductible. For example, if you have a plan with a $5,000 deductible, once you’ve paid $5,000 out of pocket to meet that deductible, your plan will apply a percentage to your total bill. If your therapy visit costs $200 and your co-insurance is 50%, your plan will pay $100 and you will be responsible for the other 50% of the cost of the visit.

A copay is a fixed amount you pay for a health care service, usually when you receive the service. The amount can vary by the type of service. You will pay your co-pay and your insurance plan will cover the remaining cost of the visit. For example, your plan may require that you have a $30 copay for each visit.

It is also possible that your insurance doesn’t have a copay or a deductible. There are dozens of insurance plans available and if you have questions about your specific policy, it is best practice to contact your insurance company directly to determine where you are at for the year with your deductibles, co-pays and co-insurance. This amount is set by the insurance company and often starts over in either January or July each year. When your plan rolls over for the year, you will be responsible for meeting your deductible, co-pays and co-insurance for the new plan year.
