You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” (GFE) explaining how much your therapeutic care will cost.
Under the law, providers need to give clients who are not using insurance a Good Faith Estimate. This document will show the costs of services that are reasonably expected for the expected services to address your mental health care needs. The estimate is based on the information known to me when I created the estimate.
The Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if complications or special circumstances occur. If this happens, federal law allows you to dispute (appeal) the bill.
If you are billed for $400 more (per provider) than this Good Faith Estimate (GFE), you have the right to dispute the bill.
You may contact me directly to let me know the billed charges are at least $400 higher than the GFE. You can ask me to update the bill to match the GFE, ask to negotiate the bill, or ask if there is financial assistance available.
You may also start a dispute resolution process with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). If you choose to use the dispute resolution process, you must start the dispute process within 120 calendar days (about 4 months) of the date on the original bill.
There is a $25 fee to use the dispute process. If the agency reviewing your dispute agrees with you, you will have to pay the price on this GFE. If the agency disagrees with you and agrees with the health care provider or facility, you will have to pay the higher amount.
