What Private-Pay Means

✦

No insurance network deciding your sessions or your treatment. Here is how it works, and how you can still get money back.

A Private-Pay Clinic

Private-pay means you pay Perkins PsyCare directly for your care, rather than us billing your insurance. You get more time, more flexibility, and care decisions made between you and your clinician, not your plan.

After each visit we give you a superbill, an itemized receipt with the medical codes your insurer needs, so you can seek out-of-network reimbursement.

What to Expect

We walk you through the whole process: what to bring, what to ask your plan, and how to file. Many PPO plans reimburse a meaningful share after your deductible, and Mentaya can file the claim for you.
