EHCS Fees and Insurance Information – Therapy

Session Format and Billing

Therapy sessions at EHCS are typically conducted in 45- or 60-minute formats and are billed using standard CPT (Current Procedural Terminology) codes.

Payment and Insurance Information

  1. Non-Insured Services

Payment is due in full on the day of your scheduled appointment. Accepted forms of payment include cash, credit card, and check (payable to EHCS). If a check is returned due to insufficient funds and EHCS incurs a bank fee, you will be charged an additional $25. EHCS requires all clients to have a valid credit card on file for payment processing.

  1. Insured Services

Your health insurance may cover all or part of the cost of therapy; however, EHCS cannot guarantee insurance reimbursement. We strongly encourage all clients to verify their mental health benefits with their insurance provider prior to beginning services.

Please keep in mind:

  • Insurance plans often only cover a portion of the fees.
  • Professional services are provided to the client, not to the insurance company.
  • You, the client, are ultimately responsible for payment, regardless of insurance coverage.

EHCS does not provide services based on the assumption that charges will be covered by insurance. If a dispute arises regarding coverage or fees, it must be resolved directly between you and your insurance carrier. Our office will not be involved in settling such disputes.

You will be asked to sign a release form allowing EHCS to submit necessary health information to your insurance provider for claim processing.

Co-pays, co-insurance, and deductibles are due at the time of your visit.

Billing & Account Management

  • Monthly statements will be issued reflecting your account balance.
  • Any balance not paid within 30 days of billing is considered past due.
  • Unless prior arrangements are made, past due accounts may be referred to a third party (e.g., collection agency or attorney) for collection. EHCS reserves the right to make this determination.
