Financial & Billing Information

Payment & Billing
Please reach out for current rates. Payment is collected at the time of service and processed using the credit card on file.
To help make therapy more accessible, sliding scale spots are available in limited number. If cost is a concern, please don’t hesitate to ask about current availability.
-
Insurance
Wise Mind Way does not currently participate in any insurance plans as an in-network provider. A monthly statement of services with codes and diagnoses required by insurance companies for out-of-network reimbursement is provided for you to submit for reimbursement.
Please check with your insurance provider for details about what your out-of-network mental health benefits are and whether you need to fulfill a deductible to receive reimbursement for out-of-network mental health coverage, how to obtain a mental health claim form, and where to submit claims.

Good Faith Estimate
As of January 1st, 2022, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) instigated a new Federal rule to protect patients from unexpected medical bills and to increase transparency between health care clinicians and patients. This rule requires all medical and mental health clinicians (including LCSWs) to give a “good faith estimate” (GFE) to patients estimating the cost of services and how long services may last.
We are also required to inform you that this practice is an “out-of-network” provider meaning that we do not directly submit claims to insurance and do not get paid by insurers.

Cancellation Policy
Life happens and to help ensure that all clients have access to consistent and timely care, at least 24 hours’ notice for any cancellations (or rescheduling) is required.
If you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice or miss your appointment without 24 hours’ notice, the practice policy is:
• Free Pass for the First Miss
• 100% Cost of a Full Session for the Second Miss and every Missed Session thereafter
