Do you take insurance?We do not accept insurance. We are an out-of-network provider for most PPO Plans. This means that you are responsible for paying for your services. However, we can provide you with a "superbill" to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement. Insurance plan coverage can vary greatly, so please check with your insurance provider via phone or online for specific coverage and rates of reimbursement.

What is a Good Faith Estimate?You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under a law that began in January 2022, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you received 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 a picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 1-800-985-3059.
GIve us a call for a free 15 minute consultation to answer any additional questions you may have regarding services for your child.
