Your Guide to Using Insurance for Therapy at Repose

Does Repose Accept Insurance? Yes!

Many of our therapists at Repose accept the following insurances in-network that require only the the cost of your copay at the time of service:

Otherwise, we are considered out-of-network (OON) providers, meaning we do not directly accept other insurance plans.

However, that doesn’t mean working with an OON provider like Repose has to break the bank. Many health insurance plans include OON mental health benefits, which is when your insurance helps to cover the cost of therapy.

Depending on your specific plan, your insurance carrier may reimburse you anywhere from 50-90%! That means that the out-of-pocket cost of a $200 therapy session after reimbursement could be just $20-$100.

How it works

Meet with your
Repose Therapist

If you have Aetna, Aetna Student, or Wellfleet Student Health Insurance you will only pay your copay at the time of service! If you want to use other insurance with out-of-network benefits, you will pay the full fee at the time of your therapy session.

Submit a Superbill

For using out-of-network insurance only: We provide you with a monthly superbill (a receipt of the therapy services you have already paid for) with all of the necessary information for you to submit the claim to your insurance. Alternatively, Repose can submit the claim to your insurance on your behalf for a small processing fee.

Get Reimbursed

If using out-of-network insurance only: Upon processing the claim, your insurance will reimburse you for a portion of your therapy session (dependent on your plan), typically in the form of a mailed check or direct deposit.

Benefits of Working with an Out-of-Network Therapist

You can achieve lasting results faster by working with a therapist who fits your needs

You can prioritize finding someone who you like, connect with, and trust without being limited by insurance

You are not limited by the number of sessions or types of therapy your insurance is willing to cover

You can choose to work with a therapist that has training in more specialized areas

You will have access to a wider variety of therapy services, like EMDR or experiential therapy

If you limit your search to in-network providers, you may have to spend weeks or months on a waitlist

Claim

A health insurance claim is a request made for direct payment or reimbursement for medical services that an insured person has obtained. Health insurance benefits or payments are obtained after the insured submits a claim to their insurer.

Reimbursement

This is when your health insurance pays you back a portion of the cost of therapy. This reimbursement is sent via check, and you would be required to pay your therapist their full fee upfront.

Deductible

The deductible is the amount you have to pay before your insurance kicks in. For example, let's say your deductible is $500. That means you will have to pay $500 out-of-pocket first, and once you have paid that amount, your insurance will start to cover 50-90% of the OON services you receive.

Superbill

A superbill is an itemized form used by healthcare providers in the United States, which details services provided to a client. It is the main data source for creation of a healthcare claim, which will be submitted to payers for reimbursement.
