Suggestions for Using Your Insurance for Therapy Sessions
Getting reimbursed from the insurance company will take organization and persistence.
Make an “insurance” file to keep copies of all documentation.
The information contained below is not intended nor implied to be a substitute for procedures
that may be required by your primary insurance company. Be sure to follow your primary insurance
company's guidelines to use insurance for therapy sessions.
1. Students should contact their primary insurance provider (parental or family insurance).
2. Call the number on your insurance card. Ask them the following questions:
A. Do I have outpatient mental health coverage?
B. What is the coverage for in-network providers[1]?
C. What is the coverage for out-of-network providers?
D. What is the yearly maximum benefit (dollar amount or # of visits)?
E. Is there a deductible (amount you pay before insurance kicks in)?
3. If you have mental health coverage, and want to use your in-network benefit, obtain a list of
providers forBryn Mawr, Pa andthe surrounding area and choose a provider you'd like to see
for therapy.
4. For most therapists or psychiatrists who are out-of-network, payment is due each month,
then you can apply for your reimbursement. To apply for reimbursement, students will need
to send their paid counseling bill to their primary insurance. You may be able to get a claim form
for your insurance off the internet.
[1] “In-network providers” refers to therapists/psychiatrists who have contracted with your insurance
company to work for a set hourly fee. A co-pay is usually a set amount you pay per session.
Partial payment means that you will pay a certain percentage of that provider’s fee. “Out-of-network
providers” refers to people not under contract with your insurance company.
