Good Faith Estimate
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of psychotherapy services. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Note: The PHSA and the GFE does not apply currently to any clients who are using insurance benefits including Out of Network Benefits (seeking reimbursement from your insurance companies).
Length of Treatment
At Brittani Persha Counseling we believe that counseling is not just a mental health service, but also a relational, strength-based, connection, emotional, and goal-oriented service. Subsequently, the length of service can change depending on the environment, life circumstances, relationships, goal of therapy, and/or any number of factors.
Therapy lasts however long you want it to. While many clients tell us after one session, “wow that felt good” or “I feel better already,” we believe that therapy is a process and a journey. So, it can be ongoing or happen when you are needing extra support. For many, therapy lasts for years, as the need for connection, self-improvement, support, and/or goal seeking is worked on. For others, after 6 sessions clients feel ready to end the process. In general, research suggests 20 sessions as the minimum to see improvement in certain therapeutic modalities.
*The Good Faith Estimates DO NOT account for no show/late cancelation fees, bank charges, crisis sessions, non-therapeutic charges e.g. documentation fees, banking fees, court/litigation fees, anger management, life skill services, clients requesting additional sessions with signed consent forms of fees, or other financial arrangements based on a case-by-case basis.
The Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if complications or special circumstances occur. If this happens, federal law allows you to dispute (appeal) the bill. If you are billed for more than this Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill. You may contact the health care provider or facility listed to let them know the billed charges are higher than the Good Faith Estimate. You can ask them to update the bill to match the Good Faith Estimate, ask to negotiate the bill, or ask if there is financial assistance available. You may also start a dispute resolution process with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).
