Insurance Coverage & Superbills
I currently am in network with the following insurance plans:

If you are covered under a different plan, you may still be able to receive reimbursement through your insurance through what is called a “superbill.” This is not guaranteed and depends upon your specific coverage. To find out more, you can contact your insurance company and ask if you have out of network mental health benefits.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your mental health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
You can ask for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. Once we decide to schedule a session, your Good Faith Estimate will be accessible to you at any time in my Headway ot Simple Practice client portal.
In general, you can expect to pay $200 for each 50 minute individual therapy session on a weekly basis for as long as you are in treatment with me.
For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call (800) 985-3059.

The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) provides safeguards to protect your privacy. Implementation of HIPAA requirements officially began on April 14, 2004. This notice describes how medical information about you may be used and disclosed and how you can get access to it. Please review carefully.
1. Patient information will be kept confidential except as is necessary to provide services or to ensure that all administrative matters related to your care are handled appropriately. Your medical records are used to provide treatment, bill and receive payments, and conduct healthcare operations. Examples of these activities include but are not limited to review of treatment records to ensure appropriate care, electronic or mail delivery of billing for treatment to you or other authorized payers, appointment reminder telephone calls, and records review to ensure completeness and quality of care. Use and disclosure of medical records is limited to the internal used outlined above except required by law or authorized by the patient or legal representative.
2. Your confidential information will not be used for the purposes of marketing or advertising of products, goods, or services.
3. Federal and State laws require abuse, neglect, domestic violence and threats to be reported to social services or other protective agencies. If such reports are made they will be disclosed to you or your legal representative unless disclosure increases risk of further harm.
4. Disclosed information will be limited to the minimum necessary. You may request an account for any uses or disclosures other than those described in Sections 1 and Sections 2.
5. You, or your legal representative, may request your records to be disclosed to yourself or any other entity. Your request must be made in writing, clearly identify the person authorized to request the release, specify the information you want disclosed, the name and address of the entity you want the information released to, purpose and the expiration date of the authorization. Any authorization provided may be revoked in writing at anytime. Psychotherapy notes are part of your medical records. I have 30 days to respond to a disclosure request and 60 days if the records are stored off site.
6. You may request corrections to your records.
7. A request for disclosure may be denied under the following circumstances: disclosure would likely endanger the life or physical safety of you or another person, requested information references other persons, except another healthcare provider, or if released to a legal representative would likely result in harm.
8. If a request for disclosure is denied for reasons outlined in Section 6, you or your legal representative may request review of the denial. A review will be conducted by another licensed healthcare provider appointed by the original reviewer, who was not involved in the original decision to deny access. A review will be concluded within 30 days.
9. You may request that I restrict uses and disclosures outlined in Section 1. However, I am not required to agree to the restrictions. If an agreement is made to restrict use or disclosure, I will be bound by such restriction until revoked by you or your legal representative orally or in writing except when disclosure is required by law or in an emergency.
10. If you wish to complain about privacy related issues you may contact the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services, Hubert H. Humphrey Building, 200 Independence Avenue SW, Washington DC, 20201. In any case there will not be any retaliation against you or your legal representative for filing a complaint.
11. This agreement may be modified or amended as required by law or in the course of health care operations.
