New Law in effect January 1, 2022

As of January 1, 2022 all healthcare providers must provide a “Good Faith Estimate” to those patients who are private pay or are billing insurance Out-Of-Network. This law does not currently apply to patients who are using In-Network benefits.

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost.

You have a right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.

You can ask your healthcare, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
