Going out-of-network often gives you specialized and personalized care.

We are happy to look up your out-of-network benefits and help you understand what your deductible and coinsurance costs are.

Out-of-pocket costs of copays, deductibles, and coinsurance are part of the benefit design with your health coverage and you are expected to pay these amounts up to the out-of-pocket maximum limit defined by your coverage.

We accept employer-sponsored group plans, but it must be a PPO/EPO/POS/OAP plan. Only out-of-network benefits are covered/accepted.

HMO, Kaiser, Medi-Cal, or other Federal/State sponsored plans are NOT accepted.

Examples of plans that have out-of-network benefits:

Anthem Blue Cross PPO

Blue Cross / Blue Shield PPO

Aetna PPO

Cigna Open Access / Choice Plus

United Healthcare PPO ; SEL +POS

Blue Edge PPO

CLAIMS/BILLING:

Saving you the paperwork hassle, we will bill your insurance directly. You are responsible for the deductible and co-insurance cost.

The deductible restarts every 12 months, usually in January but in rare cases, it’s in a different month.

In some cases, your insurance waives the deductible for mental health services.

Payment

All other standard forms of payment are accepted, including flexible spending accounts, health savings accounts, credit cards and Paypal/Venmo.
