Fees and Insurance
Fees and insurance are often an important consideration for people when choosing a therapist or testing specialist. Fees are determined on an individual basis, and we will be happy to discuss fees with you when you call.
Psychological Associates of North Jersey is an insurance friendly practice. Most medical plans cover at least part, and sometimes most or all, of the cost of treatment. With insurance plans in which we are considered ‘in network’, you will be responsible for a small copayment that is set by that insurance company, after any deductible your particular policy may have is met. With other insurance plans, we are considered ‘out-of-network’. In those cases, we most often can still accept your insurance and they will most likely cover part, or most, of the cost of treatment. When using your out of network insurance benefits, the copayment will be determined on an individual basis between you and your therapist.
Many people choose to use their ‘out of network’ insurance benefits, or pay directly for services. They make that choice in order to increase their confidentiality, increase the flexibility of their treatment and the number of visits available to them etc., given that many managed care companies monitor your therapy and limit your available coverage. We always encourage you to check with your insurance company for your mental health benefits. Our office will also check your insurance benefits if you choose to utilize those benefits. We do not accept any HMO plans, except for those HMO plans that have ‘out of network’ benefits. We will be happy to discuss our fees and insurance issues with you when you call.
The right therapist makes all the difference in the world!
