Insurance
Yale Lewis Counseling is out of network with all insurance plans. I'll give you a monthly superbill you can submit for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Call your insurer and ask about "out-of-network outpatient mental health benefits" to see what you'd get back. HSA and FSA cards are accepted.
Reduced-fee spots
I keep a small number of reduced-fee spots open. Ask about availability during your consult.
Cancellations
Please cancel or reschedule at least 48 hours ahead. Late cancellations and missed sessions are charged the full fee, with exceptions for real emergencies.
Your right to a Good Faith Estimate
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical 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 medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or 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. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
