You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical or mental health care may cost.
Under federal law, health care providers are required to give patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the expected charges for services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency services, including counseling services.
This estimate may include related costs such as therapy sessions or other services provided as part of your care.
You may request a Good Faith Estimate before scheduling services or at any time during your care.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill.
You can ask your provider for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule services.
