East Beach Psychological Services, P.C. has chosen to operate “out-of-network” with insurance companies due to the number of problems and limitations posed by insurance companies which limit the access, depth, and quality of mental health services.
Insurance companies limit the type, length, number, and frequency of therapy sessions
Insurance companies limit the types and number of assessments that can be given for psychological assessment, often failing to cover tests necessary for accurate and thorough diagnosis
Insurance companies often limit or exclude coverage for psychological testing services for certain referral questions that matter to clients
Clinicians must spend significant amounts of time managing insurance company billing and claims, which limits availability for client sessions and drives up the cost of assessment and therapy services for clients
Less privacy as insurance companies require detailed information on the mental health services provided
Clients generally are able to file for reimbursement for services provided out-of-network.
Benefits of the Out-of-Network model:
More availability and flexibility in scheduling and treatment approaches
Added privacy; no need to share with the insurance and billing companies about one’s private mental health concerns
More efficient access to specialty services, such as Exposure and Response Prevention for OCD and psychological assessment for Autism, which may not be widely available within the insurance network
Clinicians base testing services on what the client needs, rather than on what insurance companies choose to cover
Clients can usually obtain reimbursement for portions of the services provided “out-of'-network”
