Out Of Network

Usually, you can get 50% - 80% of your care paid for once your deductible is met if your out-of-network benefits apply. Your deductible will depend on your plan with your insurance company. We can inquire about this information from your insurance company with some minor information on your behalf.

As a courtesy, we also complete and submit the insurance claim on your behalf after each session to help you get this money easily reimbursed. 

We can provide you with a Super Bill to submit to your insurance company if need be.
