F.A.Q.
Is there a way to still use insurance for therapy when your private practice is not in-network with insurance?
If your insurance plan has out-of-network benefits for psychotherapy, you may be eligible to apply for reimbursement from your insurance for services even if a provider is not in-network with your plan (often around 50%-80% per session).
While you will be responsible for paying in full at the time of each appointment, as an out-of-network provider I can provide a “Superbill” (an itemized receipt) for each session for you to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.
How do I know if I have out-of-network coverage?
To best way to find out if you have out-of-network benefits is to call your insurance provider directly. You can usually find the number to call on the back of your insurance card.
Once connected, these may be some helpful questions to ask:
Do I have out-of-network benefits for telehealth outpatient psychotherapy services?
What is my yearly deductible? Has it been met or how much more until my deductible is met?
Once I have met that deductible, what percentage will insurance reimburse me for?
How much will I be reimbursed for 45 minute or 60 minute individual psychotherapy sessions (CPT codes 90834 or 90837)?
How much will I be reimbursed for a couples/family psychotherapy session (CPT code: 90847)?
*Does my insurance plan cover Z codes for couples therapy?
*Z codes are often not covered by insurance, including codes such as “Problems in Relationship with Spouse or Partner Z63. 0”. For this reason, couples therapy is often not covered by insurance. Be sure to check with your insurance about your specific out-of-network coverage.
How do I submit a Superbill? Is there an online portal or do I have to mail or fax a copy?
What are some points to consider before I decide to submit a Superbill to my insurance?
It may be helpful to keep in mind that a Superbill, as with any paperwork submitted to insurance for reimbursement, requires a clinical diagnosis as classified in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM–5) and the International Classification of Diseases (ICD-10) to show “medical necessity” of services. If you have questions or concerns related to privacy and receiving a diagnosis, please let me know and we can discuss what your options may be.
Additionally, couples counseling is often not covered by insurance. This is because insurance companies require reimbursable services to be "medically necessary" and generally do not consider “relationship issues” in itself a mental health diagnosis in need of treatment. If you are looking for couples therapy and would like to use your out-of-network insurance benefits, you may want to confirm with your specific insurance plan that they will reimburse for CPT code "Z63.0 - Problems in Relationship with Spouse or Partner” first.
