What is a Good Faith Estimate?
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan, coverage, or Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage, both orally and in writing, of their ability, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges. You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical 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 bill for medical items and services. If you are working with me as a therapist and not using insurance, I will provide you with a Good Faith Estimate document in your new client paperwork, which will clearly explain the cost of therapy. If you have any questions, we can discuss it prior to or in your first session.
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
