No Surprise Act: Good Faith Estimate (GFE) Notice

Good Faith Estimate 

Currently under the law, health care providers need to give clients who self pay (don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance) an estimate of the expected charges for psychotherapy/counseling services.  You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate (GFE) for the total expected cost of any non-emergency psychotherapy/counseling services. 

You can ask your mental health provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service, or at any time during treatment.  If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the bill. As our client, make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.   For any questions or more information about your rights regarding the Good Faith Estimate, or to dispute a current bill contact our office or visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
