Out-of-Network Benefits
If you have a PPO or POS plan, you may have Out-of-Network benefits (OON). This means your insurance may reimburse you a certain percentage (plan dependent) of any out-of-pocket costs. Please call your insurance provider directly to determine if this applies to you and at what percentage you may be reimbursed. For out-of-pocket clients, we will happily supply necessary documentation to those who wish to utilize out-of-network benefits.
Advantages of Self Pay
You may choose to participate in a self-pay option if you do not want your insurance company to have access to your treatment records. Self-pay is also an option for those whose insurances do not offer out-of-network benefits. Holistic Counseling and Wellness LLC accepts most major credit and debit cards. Payment is due at time of service. If services are of interest to you but a payment plan is needed, please contact us to discuss your options.
