Insurance & Fees

All new clients are subject to a $150 initial session fee. 

· $150 per Individual Therapy Session

· $200 per Couples Therapy Session 

All services are non-refundable and/or transferable.  All fees are due upon rendering service via Credit or Debit Card. 

We accept United Health, Carefirst Blue Cross Blue Shield and Cigna insurances at this time.

District Counseling is considered out-of-network with any insurance carriers other than those listed above. This means that you may be eligible to receive reimbursement through your insurance coverage. Please check with your insurance provider directly to determine your out-of-network rates & benefits. 

If you would like to use your out-of-network health insurance benefits, you will pay the full fee of $150 at the time of service, and we will provide you with a detailed invoice that you can then submit to your insurance company directly for reimbursement. 

Private Self Pay

Some people opt to pay for therapy out-of-pocket as a way to secure privacy and increase independence in choice. When clients use insurance to pay for therapy, District Counseling is at minimum required to provide a diagnosis to the insurance company. Your diagnosis becomes a part of your health insurance record.

Cancellations

Please note that 24-hour advance cancellation or rescheduling of appointments is required in order to avoid being billed for the session. If you cancel or reschedule an appointment within the 24-hour time frame, or no-show for an appointment, you will be charged a $50 no show fee. 

As a courtesy to you, we will confirm coverage details prior to the second session, but recommend that you also call your provider to get detailed information on your coverage.

The following is a list of helpful questions to ask you insurance provider: 

• Do I have mental health benefits for outpatient therapy?
• Which is my out of network mental health reimbursement rate. 
• What is my annual deductible and has it been met?
• How many sessions are allowed in a year?
• Are there any restrictions for diagnoses covered?
