Convenience! Picture yourself finishing up an exhausting day of work, putting on your most comfy clothes, and cozying up with a blanket. Instead of battling the traffic to and from home, or braving the outside world and it’s elements, you cozy up in your chair, open your laptop, and enter the waiting room for your online teletherapy session. Sounds nice, right?

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost. Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. You can ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
