Additional Information

While ketamine treatment may not always fall under typical insurance coverage, we are in-network with several reputable insurance carriers. This allows us to bill them for a portion of the treatment cost. Our billing specialist will work with you to verify your insurance benefits and provide a good faith estimate of the cost of treatment.

A good faith estimate is an approximation of the out-of-pocket expenses you may incur for your treatment. It provides you with a clear understanding of the expected costs, allowing you to plan accordingly. Our billing specialist will provide you with this estimate based on the information obtained during the verification process.

Some insurance carriers may require pre-authorization for ketamine treatment. If this is the case, our team will assist in obtaining the necessary documentation to ensure a seamless process.

Coverage limits can vary depending on your specific insurance plan. Our billing specialist will work with you to provide information on any coverage limits that may apply to your treatment.

In the event that an insurance claim is denied, our team will work with you to explore alternative options and potentially file an appeal on your behalf.
