Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate
If you do not have health insurance or choose not to use insurance to pay for counseling, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining the expected cost of your care.
A Good Faith Estimate will be provided when required by law and may also be requested before scheduling services.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than the Good Faith Estimate from a provider or facility, you may be eligible to dispute the bill through the federal patient-provider dispute resolution process.
