Insurance

Services may be covered in full or in part by your health insurance or employee benefit plan. Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

• Do I have mental health insurance benefits?
• What is my co-payment/ co- insurance?
• What is my deductible and has it been met?
• Does the deductible apply to both medical and behavioral health services?
• Is this a calendar year deductible or does it start over at a different time in the year?
• How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
• Do visits require pre-authorization

For your convenience Dr. Childers has administrative staff to help with you payment and insurance related needs. Dr. Childers is in-network with the following insurance and will bill on your behalf:

• Lifewise
• Aetna
• MODA
• Regence BC/ BS
• Pacific Source
• First Choice
• Providence Preferred-note this is a different insurance than Providence
• Out-of-Network insurance companies if benefits are available

NOTE: Although Dr. Childers is sending documentation to your insurance company, you are responsible for the full amounted billed if insurance does not make payment.

Payment
