Insurance
Self-Pay Process
PHG is a private pay practice.
There are many benefits to the self-pay process:
Insurance requires immediate diagnosis after little evaluation is completed. With self-pay, no diagnosis is required, therefore parents have control over what information goes on the child’s permanent medical record.
Parents can opt in or out of further mental health evaluations, and skilled practitioners have the time to complete thorough and accurate reports.
Parents have control over what patient health information is shared with other providers and schools.
All patient health information is held in more secure confidence and cannot be released to other medical providers without a signed release.
There is more flexibility in the location of sessions, time spent during sessions, types of treatments used during sessions, how many sessions are needed, and who is able to join sessions. Self-pay avoids restrictions of insurance billing-codes and insurance treatment denials.
Payment is required at the time of treatment. Cash, checks, credit cards, and some HSAs/FSAs are accepted.
Out-of-Network Reimbursement
Some families may opt into filing for out-of-network reimbursement through their insurance. All insurance policies are different and PHG cannot guarantee how much, or if, your insurance will reimburse. Please call your insurance company to obtain details of your coverage. PHG is happy to provide a Superbill to the client in order to aid in the submission of out-of-network reimbursement. Clients are responsible for submitting documentation to the insurance company. Full payment is required at time of treatment.
Medicaid and Medicaid Supplemental Plans
Due to being a private-pay practice, I legally am unable to treat children on any Medicaid plans.
Please call your Medicaid provider and they can provide a list of approved mental health providers for your policy.
Please contact PHG if you have any additional questions regarding self-pay and insurance policies.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 24 hours beforehand. Otherwise, you may be charged for the full rate of the session.
