Individual and group coaching services are not covered by insurance. For Clients without insurance, I am a member of the Open Path Collective.
Here are 3 things to keep in mind when using health insurance for my services:
- My goal is to help you change your circumstances by addressing issues of the heart and improving your quality of life. Typically, clients seeking this type of service do not require a mental health diagnosis and insurance companies may not cover the treatment.
- Personal health information, including treatment plan and diagnosis, is required to submit insurance claims. This information limits confidentiality.
- If I am required to provide a diagnosis to the insurance company, this information will follow you to your next insurance company and so on.
