Insurance Information

I am currently accepting Cigna and Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey insurance. Depending on your insurance company, I may be "In Network" or "Out of Network". If I am an Out of Network provider for your plan, many times insurance will reimburse all or a portion of the fees for Out of Network providers. Please check with your insurance representative for more detailed information specific to your plan. I suggest calling the number on the back of your card for Behavioral Health.These are some important questions to ask for reimbursement for Behavioral Health:

Do I have a deductible and if so, how much is it?
Do I have Out-of Network coverage?
What address should I send receipts to?
Is there a limit to the number of sessions for which they pay?
Are virtual sessions included?

If you have Out of Network coverage, I can provide you with a receipt (called a Super Bill) to submit to your insurer. If Mental Health therapy is NOT covered by your insurer and you would NOT be reimbursed for it, we can work together to come up with a different solution.
