INSURANCE VERIFICATION
Before your first counseling appointment, please provide the following information:
• Full name
• Date of birth
• Insurance company
• Member identification number
• Group number, when applicable
• A clear photograph of the front and back of your insurance card
Benefits will be reviewed whenever possible before your appointment. Insurance verification is an estimate and does not guarantee payment by the insurance company.
Clients are responsible for understanding their insurance benefits and for paying any deductible, copayment, coinsurance, non-covered service, denied claim, or remaining balance assigned by the insurance company.
EMPLOYEE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM SERVICES
Employee Assistance Programs may provide a limited number of counseling sessions at no cost to the client.
Before scheduling an EAP appointment, please obtain the following information from your employer or EAP administrator:
• Authorization number
• Number of approved sessions
• Effective dates
• Presenting concern or authorization category
• EAP company name
Additional counseling sessions may be available through insurance or self-pay after the authorized EAP sessions have been completed.
SELF-PAY FEES
Self-pay is available for clients who do not have insurance, prefer not to use insurance, or receive services that are not covered by their insurance plan.
Standard Counseling Session: $90
Reduced Self-Pay Rate, When Available: $75
Fees may vary depending on the service provided, session length, provider contract, clinical platform, or specialized service.
PAYMENT
Payment is due at the time services are provided unless another arrangement has been approved in advance.
Accepted payment methods may include:
• Credit or debit card
• Secure electronic payment
• Approved online payment portal
• Other authorized payment arrangements
A valid payment method may be required to remain on file.
GOOD FAITH ESTIMATE
Clients who are uninsured or who choose not to submit claims to insurance may have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining the expected cost of scheduled healthcare services.
A Good Faith Estimate may be provided before services begin or upon request. The estimate is based on the information available at the time it is prepared and may change if treatment needs, frequency, services, or circumstances change.
The Good Faith Estimate is not a contract and does not require a client to continue treatment.
CANCELLATION AND MISSED APPOINTMENT FEES
Appointments should be canceled or rescheduled according to the cancellation policy provided during intake.
Late cancellations and missed appointments may result in a fee. Insurance plans generally do not pay for missed appointments or late-cancellation fees.
QUESTIONS ABOUT COVERAGE
Insurance plans frequently change their provider directories, benefit structures, deductibles, copayments, and coverage requirements.
Please contact Allberry Counseling & Coaching before scheduling if you have questions about:
• Insurance participation
• Employee Assistance Program benefits
• Medicare Advantage coverage
• Self-pay fees
• Sliding-fee availability
• Deductibles
• Copayments
• Coinsurance
• Prior authorization requirements
IMPORTANT INSURANCE DISCLAIMER
Acceptance of an insurance company does not mean every plan offered by that company is accepted. Some employers, third-party administrators, marketplace plans, Medicare Advantage plans, and specialty networks use separate provider networks.
Verification of benefits does not guarantee payment. Final coverage decisions are made by the insurance company after a claim is processed.
Clients are financially responsible for services that are denied, excluded, considered not medically necessary, applied to a deductible, or otherwise not paid by their insurance plan.
