Out of network benefits
If your plan is not listed, Personal Best Therapy would be considered an out of network provider. Depending on your insurance plan you may be able to use “out of network” benefits to be reimbursed for part of your mental health treatment. If we are not “in network” with your insurance plan we can give you a receipt (or “superbill”) to submit to your insurance company for possible reimbursement. Call the customer service number on the back of your card to find out if you have out-of-network mental health, outpatient benefits and what exactly they reimburse.
