Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and health care facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability (upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges for medical services and non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services . 

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. Client's  have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees. Client's can also ask their health care provider, and any other provider of their choice, for a Good Faith Estimate before they schedule an item or service. Client's have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate from your provider in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. 

• Continuing client's  (those who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance benefits) of Prysmatic Therapy have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” outlining an estimate of the expected charges for psychotherapy services. 

• New Clients (those who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance benefits) of Prysmatic Therapy have the right to ask for a Good Faith Estimate before the first scheduled session. 

Please note that the Good Faith Estimate  only shows an "estimate" costs of items and services that are reasonably expected for services provided by Prysmatic Therapy. The estimate is based on information known at the time the estimate is created. It does not take into account any reimbursement that you may receive as a result of out of network benefits. The Good Faith Estimate does not include any unknown or unexpected costs that may arise during treatment. You could be charged more if additional services are needed during special circumstances. 

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. It is the client's responsibility to keep a copy of their Good Faith Estimate  for their records.
