Understanding your benefits
What we check before you start
Behavioral health benefits can be confusing. Before your first appointment, we typically check:
- Network status with your specific plan, including for services with Dr. Anglin
- Whether therapy and/or psychological testing is covered
- Your deductible and whether it has been met
- Your copay or coinsurance
- Whether prior authorization or a referral is required
- Any limits on particular services
Information from an insurance company is not a guarantee of payment, so we walk you through what we find.
Testing
Using insurance for psychological assessment
Psychological testing is often covered when it is medically necessary, for example to clarify ADHD, autism, or a complex diagnostic question. Some plans require prior authorization, and some limit testing that is primarily educational. We confirm these details before scheduling.
Therapy
Using insurance for therapy
Therapy is usually billed under your behavioral health benefit, with a copay or coinsurance per session. Couples therapy is not always covered. We verify your therapy benefits separately from testing.
