You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical and mental 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 the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services.
Receive it in writing: You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services.
Timing requirements: Ensure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask any health care provider or facility for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
Disputing bills: If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Keep your copy: Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
