How do I know if my insurance accepts a Superbill?
It is generally advised to call your insurance company prior to the commencement of services in order to verify out-of-network reimbursement and coverage by asking the following: “Does my plan include out-of-network, outpatient mental health coverage? Is there a limit to the number of sessions per calendar year? Do I have a deductible and has it been met yet? What percentage do you pay for out-of-network mental health benefits and up to what allowed amount?” You will often need to tell your insurance company that you tried to find an in-network therapist, but that you could not find one specializing in PatrickLyra’s areas (somatic/body-based approaches to trauma, LGBTQIA2S+, transgender care, etc.).

*You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and 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 expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can 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.
