​
Pros & Cons of Self-Pay,
Insurance & Out of Network Benefits
Self-Pay
Pros
-
It's the most private way possible for you to receive therapy
​
-
​It's straightforward (you pay & that's it)
​
-
There are no surprises (you know what it costs and nothing changes suddenly)
​
Cons
-
You may not feel confident about what you're investing in right away (typically, within 4-8 sessions you will feel the investment paying off)
​
-
You will not be paying towards a deductible on a medical plan
Insurance
Pros
-
Session costs can go towards your deductible on a medical plan (if you have one and your deductible is not already met)
​​
-
It is possible for you to save money on the cost of sessions (if your co-pay amount is lower than the session cost and/or your deductible is low enough)
​
Cons
-
Insurance companies can audit and view parts of your chart at anytime, infringing on privacy
​
-
Insurance companies can stop covering services they do not deem medically necessary (charts can be audited which can put a strain on the counselor/client dynamic)
​
OON Benefits
Pros
-
You can see a provider you click with who does not take your insurance
​
-
You can receive a portion of your session costs back like a rebate
​
Cons
-
Wait time for reimbursement
-
Reimbursement is not guaranteed
​
-
OON services are still linked with insurance involvement, and insurance companies could still impose on treatment

Out of Network Benefits
​
-
I use Mentaya to help you get reimbursed if you have OON Benefits for an insurance I do not take. This means you pay me directly, and Mentaya works to get you a reimbursement.

Contact me and I can run your information through my system to confirm your benefits.
