Insurance and Payment
Most of our clinicians are in network with major plans, and we will file claims for you on request. Here is how insurance, private pay and out-of-network benefits work here.
Plans we accept
- Aetna
- Blue Cross Blue Shield
- Cigna
- UnitedHealthcare
- Optum
- Medicare
- Oscar
- UMR
Depending on the clinician, we are in network with these plans. Check each clinician's profile, or use Find a Clinician, to see exactly which plans that person accepts.
Insurance and payment detailsUsing your insurance
If your clinician accepts your plan and you want to use it, complete the insurance section of your electronic paperwork in the client portal by 7 am on the day of your first session. If it is not complete by then, we will not know you plan to use insurance and you will be billed the full session fee.
Please call your insurance company before your first visit to confirm your mental health benefits and your copay.
Out of network and superbills
Whether your clinician is in network or out of network with your plan, we are happy to file claims for you on request. If your plan has out-of-network benefits, they may be comparable to in-network benefits, or you may have a deductible to meet. We can also give you a superbill to submit yourself.
Reasons some clients choose not to use insurance
- More privacy, since your insurance company has no record of your visits
- No session limits set by an insurer
- Insurance companies typically do not provide coverage for those without a mental health diagnosis and those who do not meet medical necessity
