Insurance
- We have providers who are registered with most major insurance companies. It is your responsibility to verify your individual benefits, we will check your benefits as a courtesy. You will be fully responsible for payment, especially if insurance quotes incorrect benefits or your plan coverage changes. Please call our office at 720-805-1150, to discuss insurance coverage and benefits.
- At times, it can take up to a year for insurance to process claims and we have experienced insurers coming back to us to get a refund for services that were paid but processed incorrectly. If this happens, you are responsible for payment of the services provided.
- We will work with you so that you can submit out-of-network insurance claims to your insurance company or claims to your Flexible Spending Account or Health Savings Account.
Accessibility to therapy
- We believe that anyone who is interested in seeking out therapy should be able to. This is why we keep our fee as low as possible and contract with insurance companies. Furthermore, we work with local universites to staff masters level interns so that we may be able to provide an even deeper discount. Please inquire with our Client Care Coordinator during your initial phone conversation if you are experiencing financial barriers to discuss potential options.
Good Faith Estimate
- Under the federal No Surprises Act, health care providers, including therapists, need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
- You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
- Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare 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 right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-877-696-6775.
Payment
- We accept personal checks or credit cards.
- Payment is expected the same day services are rendered.
- If a check is returned, no further appointments will be honored until the amount is paid in full. Future payments must be made via credit card.
