Little Bear Psychology, PLLC does not accept insurance and is considered an Out-of-Network Provider. Depending on your insurance plan, you may be eligible to receive full or partial reimbursement for healthcare fees paid to an Out-of-Network provider.
I am happy to provide you with a Superbill statement, an itemized receipt of services, to submit to your health insurance provider for possible reimbursement. If you plan to use your insurance, I recommend you contact your insurance carrier directly prior to your intake session and ask:
Do I have out-of-network mental health or therapy benefits?
What is my out-of-network deductible and what is the percentage my plan reimburses for out-of-network care?
Are there limits on the number of sessions or session duration?
Is prior authorization or approval required for out-of-network care?
How do I submit a superbill?
Please note that reimbursement is not guaranteed and depends solely on your insurance plan.

You have the right to a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your health care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of charges for billed health care items and services before those items or services are provided. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. Upon request, your provider will provide you with a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item if scheduled 3 business days in advance or within 3 business days if scheduled at least 10 business days in advance. You can also request a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit: www.cms.gov/nosurprises
