Private Pay

Choosing to privately pay for mental health services is a personal, financial, and privileged decision. There are some benefits of private pay such as not needing a mental health diagnosis, increased privacy and confidentiality within limits of the law, access to longer sessions, and other services that insurance may not cover.

​

People who choose private pay to cover therapy will be provided a Good Faith Estimate as required of the No Surprises Act which came into effect 01/01/2022. This estimate details the cost, type, and frequency of services provided in a 12 month period. It is provided at least one day in advance of any scheduled services received from Duluth Perinatal.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate you can file a dispute. Please make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. For more information or questions please visit www.CMS.gov/nosurprises or call the No Surprises Help Desk at 1-800-985-3059.
