Insurance
I am currently in-network with Premera Blue Cross, Regence Blue Shield and First Choice Health in Washington, Highmark in Pennsylvania and Anthem in Ohio. Other Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans may be billable as well. If you have another insurance, I am happy to provide you with documentation so you can submit an out-of-network claim to your insurance company. I only offer teletherapy in Washington, Pennsylvania and Ohio. Please contact your insurance company to ensure teletherapy is covered under your plan.
Cancellation Policy
Please notify me as soon as possible if you need to cancel a session. Sessions cancelled less than 24 hours before the scheduled session time will be charged the full session fee.
Payment Options
Payment for services can be made with checks, credit/debit cards or HSA/FSA cards.
No Surprises Act
You may obtain a good faith estimate of my charges upon request prior to scheduling with me. The No Surprises Act is a federal law which provides you with the right to a good faith estimate of the cost of services at my practice. However, Ohio, Pennsylvania and Washington licensing board rules require me to provide you with the actual cost of my charges in a written informed consent form to which you must agree prior to my providing services. That will be available to you prior to you being seen for services and prior to any billing. In most cases it is impossible to estimate how many sessions you will need, and that will not be determined until your concerns are evaluated and will also vary based on the progress that you make, which depends in part on your efforts with the process. You will be free to discontinue services at any time or the services may otherwise be terminated in accordance with the informed consent form language.
Although the No Surprises Law says that you may initiate a dispute process if the actual charges are substantially in excess of the Good Faith Estimated charges, i.e. if you are charged $400 more than the estimated cost for a session or for the total estimate provided, that is unlikely to happen and would be a violation of licensing board rules, since you will be agreeing up front to actual charges per session prior to being seen. Dispute information is available upon request, however any changes to my fees will require a change in the informed consent form fees, which you must agree to prior to having them go into effect, otherwise the fees will remain in effect for 12 months.
