Your Right to a Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your mental health care will cost.
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for items and services. At Texoma Specialty Counseling this applies to self-pay sessions, sliding-scale sessions, ketamine-assisted psychotherapy (KAP), groups, and classes when you are not using insurance.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your service. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
To request a Good Faith Estimate, email hello@texomaspecialtycounseling.com or ask your therapist.
