  • Interested in utilizing your insurance benifits?

    If you are interested in using your insurance benefits, we ask that you contact your insurance company to get some information before your first session and obtain & share the reference number for your call/inquiry with your therapist.

    Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions:

    Do I have mental health insurance benefits?

    Do I have a deductible and has it been met? 

    Do I have a copay or co-insurance and how much is it?

    Is the practice, Growth & Healing Therapy Associates an in-network group with my insurance plan?

    As a courtesy, Growth & Healing Therapy Associates will run a “VOB” (verification of benefits inquiry) once provided a copy of the front & back of your insurance card. Please know that the information obtained from the VOB is NOT a guarantee of payment/ coverage/ costs. It is only a estimate of your specific plan’s coverage/cost. Exact coverage/costs will be known only after first claim has been submitted/acceptance and we receive the “EOB” Explanation of Benefits which outlines actual/ exact coverage/cost for service(s). Your therapist will promptly communicate / confirm coverage/cost once EOB is received.
