I am an out-of-network provider.

I can provide a superbill that you submit to insurance carrier for potential out-of-network reimbursement.

Here is a resource for you to check your out-of-network coverage: https://calculator.meetnirvana.com

For the most accurate reimbursement rate, I recommend you reaching out to your insurance directly with questions below.

I encourage you to call your insurance carrier to verify out-of-network coverage. Here are some questions you can ask:

• Does my plan cover out-of-network providers?

• Do my benefits cover telehealth/online therapy services?

• Does my deductible apply to mental health counseling? If so, what is my out-of-network deductible and have I met it yet this year?

• Do I have a restricted number of visits per year for mental health counseling? If yes, how many visits?

• What is the out-of-network reimbursement rate for the following CPT code?

  • 90791 -Individual intake

  • 90837 -Individual Psychotherapy

  • 90847 or 90846 -relational therapy
