Using Your Insurance
Insurance benefits can be confusing. Because I’m only in network with Carelon Behavioral Health (formerly Beacon Health) insurance, if you have this insurance, please make sure you have called them to confirm your in-network mental health benefits. For any other health insurance, inquire about your out-of-network mental health benefits, and then give me a call.
Insurance Companies Accepted
I am only a provider with Carelon Behavioral Health (formerly Beacon Health) insurance. I'm not a provider with any other insurance company.
Why I No Longer Take Major Health Insurance
Health insurance companies dictate how and why treatment is applied. They determine how often and the type of treatment they will pay for and they also determine the medical necessity of the treatment being provided. Given those constraints, I have decided that I no longer want insurance entities to have that amount of control over the treatment you and I decide is appropriate for you.
How You Can Pay for Services Without Insurance
Many people use a health savings account to pay for my services. This account is tied to your employer and is not subject to the same rules as your health insurance company. You can also look into out-of-network benefits with your health insurance. These benefits tend to operate under a reimbursement approach whereby you pay me the full fee first and then they reimburse you a percentage (usually after meeting a deductible).
Forms of Payment
Cash, check, credit cards (including Discover), and PayPal are all accepted.
Reduced Fees
Reduced fees may be negotiated on a limited basis.
Cancellation Policy
Please call no later than 24 hours before your appointment to cancel. The late cancellation fee is $25 and the no show fee is $35.
