Out-of-Network (OON) Provider
Alex is an ‘out-of-network’ (OON) fee-for-service provider. He is not contracted or paneled with insurance carriers or Medicaid. However, upon request, he provides you with the necessary and appropriate documentation to submit for possible reimbursement via your OON benefits (unless you have Medicare) This documentation is often referred to as a ‘Super Bill’ (receipt of services).
Please check with your insurance carrier to learn more about your OON mental health benefits. When speaking with insurance, consider:
What mental health benefits does my plan offer?
Are certain mental health diagnoses excluded from my plan’s coverage?
How much does my plan reimburse for OON services?
How many sessions does my plan cover?
Is pre-authorization, referral, or approval from my pediatrician or family physician required?
Why private pay?
Insurance companies are profit-driven, not client-centered. They enact limitations on the amount of time Alex can spend with you and/or your family. They also often attempt to dictate the way services are provided regardless of what may be best for you or your child’s unique circumstance.
Alex does not accept insurance so he can spend more time with you in providing the specialized services best for you or your family.
Payment
Alex accepts cash, credit/debit, and HSA/FSA payments for services. Payment is due prior to or at the time of service, and accepted in-person (cash) or through the secure payment portal (credit/debit). If paying via credit/debit or HSA/FSA, a card remains on file in our payment portal for timely processing of payments at the time of service. Payment plans, discounted fees, and pro bono services are considered on an individual basis.
