Insurance
I am an in-network provider for Carefirst and an out-of-network provider for other insurance companies. For Carefirst, please confirm your coverage in your specific plan. Carefirst co-pays, if applicable, are due at the end of each session.
For out-of-network, at the end of each session, you will be responsible to provide payment in full. I provide you with an invoice that you can submit to your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement. Here are some questions to ask your health insurance provider:
-
What are my out-of-network mental health insurance benefits?
-
What is my deductible and has it been met?
-
How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
-
What is the coverage amount per therapy session? (It is usually expressed as a percentage, like 80% or a flat rate, like $80.)
-
Is preauthorization (e.g. preapproval, precertification) required from my insurance company or primary care physician?
Questions? Please contact me for further information.
