EBTCS’ therapists are not contracted with any insurance panels and are considered out-of-network providers. You may contact your insurance company to determine if they will reimburse you for services provided by EBTCS therapists through your out-of-network benefits. Many insurance plans do provide the opportunity to apply for reimbursement for therapy services received from out-of-network providers. Please call your insurance company prior to your first therapy appointment and request further information regarding your out-of-network benefits.
Some helpful questions to ask your insurance company include:
- I am seeking mental health treatment services at the Evidence Based Treatment Centers of Seattle. Does my plan have any out-of-network coverage for mental health services?
- Is there an out-of-network deductible, and if so, what is it?
- The billing CPT codes will be ________________. What is the maximum allowable for each of these codes? What percentage of this allowable will my plan pay for each of these codes?
- How many mental health sessions does my plan cover per year?
- What information/forms do I need to submit in order to receive out-of-network reimbursement?
- How and where do I submit reimbursement claims (online, mail)?
- Are there any time limitations regarding filing my claims?
