Fees
We do not participate in insurance paneling at this time. This does not mean that your insurance company will not reimburse you for part or all of the evaluation. We will provide you with documentation, at your request, that you may use to support an insurance claim. If you are interested in seeking insurance reimbursement, you may want to consider calling your company's benefits department and asking about out of network reimbursement for the following codes:

You should plan to pay in full at the time of your evaluation. You will be given a receipt to submit to insurance to support your claim. Final reports will not be released prior to receiving full payment. Please inform in advance if you require a different payment arrangement.
We do not charge more for "complicated" referrals as we believe that every one of our patients deserves a high quality, comprehensive evaluation, and based on our expertise, we will choose as many varied assessment techniques as necessary to answer your referral questions. One of the benefits of our freedom from insurance companies is that no outside force dictates how many tests we give or how long we spend with any given patient- we are truly able to invest the time and resources that you deserve to answer your questions and there will never be additional charges for supplementary testing. If you are pursuing a child or adolescent evaluation, you may wish to discuss this with their school, as the school district may cover part or all of the evaluation's cost; particularly if the issues of concern are impacting academic functioning. In this case, we may need to speak to the school to bill them directly.
Payment is due at the time of the evaluation, and can be made via personal check, cash or credit card.
