Insurance is complex and confusing, especially when benefits are out-of-network. It takes time for clients, or their therapists, to call insurance companies to obtain benefit details -- and even when a therapist offers a sliding scale rate, a client's financial obligation may change depending on their reimbursement benefits.

Nirvana strives to remove financial uncertainty for anyone seeking mental health care. Research shows that across all industries, transparent pricing makes people more likely to try a service. That is why we offer tools like our insurance reimbursement calculator

Not a problem. Here is some standard copy you can try for your clients which other therapists of ours have used in the past. 

“While we are not in-network with any insurance providers, we understand that our clients may still wish to use their out-of-network benefits for reimbursement. Many clients have out-of-network benefits, but may not understand how to use them.

We’ve partnered with Nirvana, a company that advocates on behalf of therapy seekers, to provide transparency into your out-of-network benefits so that you have greater insight into what reimbursement is possible with your plan.

Use our Peace of Mind Calculator to estimate how much you can expect to pay for out-of-network therapy. If you don’t have a specific therapist in mind, enter the name of any therapist from our practice.”

The No Surprises Act was passed to protect clients from unexpected medical bills. It includes a provision that requires a Good Faith Estimate of your total billing amount for new and existing clients. While HHS has deferred enforcement for insured clients, Good Faith Estimates are now required for uninsured and self-pay clients. For more information, read our blog about the No Surprises Act.
