Insurance​

 

At this time, the only insurance I'm accepting for new clients is United Healthcare for Washington-based clients. I also accept FSA/HSA and am happy to provide a superbill for you to claim on your out-of-network benefits for other insurance. Please see my rates and more information about superbills below.

​

Reduced Rates/Scholarships​

 

I believe that mental health care should be accessible to everyone. To support this, I offer reduced rates based on financial hardship and access.

​

Reduced rates prioritize clients who are not covered by insurance I'm credentialed with, cannot use a superbill, cannot afford the full cash payment, and/or belong to marginalized groups.

​

There are a limited number of reduced rate spots available and I ask that you only request one if you truly need a reduced fee. I trust our community to uphold the principles of community care, considering both the needs of others and our own capacity to be generous with our resources. Please contact me to discuss options.

Superbill​

​

A superbill is a detailed receipt you can submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. You pay the full cash fee to Wild Open Being, and we provide you with a receipt for your payments. You can then submit this receipt to your insurance company for possible reimbursement, according to your specific plan's rates.

​

Key points about superbills:

• Check with your insurance provider to confirm if they accept superbills and to understand the reimbursement percentage.

• Insurance companies do not reimburse for reduced rate fees. Full payment is required at the time of service, and a receipt will be provided for the previous month's payments.

• You are responsible for submitting the receipt to your insurance provider and will be reimbursed based on your plan after submission. Sometimes, paying the full fee and receiving partial reimbursement can be more cost-effective than using a reduced rate fee if this option is available to you.

 

Due to the limited availability of reduced rate spots, if you can afford to pay for services upfront and be reimbursed later, using the superbill option would be greatly appreciated.

No Surprises Act & Good Faith Estimate

​

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your therapy services will cost. Under the No Surprises Act, mental health providers are required to give clients who don’t have insurance — or who are choosing not to use insurance — an estimate of expected fees for services.

​

Your Rights Include:

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency services.

• You can ask Wild Open Being to provide a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your scheduled service. You’re also welcome to request an estimate at any time.

• If you receive a bill that is $400 or more above your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill.

• You're encouraged to keep a copy or photo of your Good Faith Estimate for your records.
