Understanding Your Coverage

Navigating insurance benefits for mental health services can sometimes be complex.

Our administrative team is here to help you understand your coverage and benefits. We

will work closely with you to ensure clarity regarding copayments, deductibles, and any

pre-authorization requirements.

How to Verify Your Coverage

Before your first appointment, we recommend contacting your insurance provider

directly.

Key questions to ask include:

  • What are my outpatient behavioral health benefits?

  • Do I have a deductible to meet prior to insurance paying anything?

  • Do I have a copayment or coinsurance for therapy sessions?

  • Are there any limits or restrictions on the number of sessions covered per year?

  • Do I have out-of-network benefits?

Out-of-Network Options

If Carolina Blue Skies Counseling is not currently in-network with your insurance

provider, you may still have options. Many insurance plans offer out-of-network benefits

that could reimburse a portion of your therapy costs. Our team can provide you with a

detailed invoice (superbill) to submit to your insurance company for reimbursement.

Payment Options

In addition to insurance, we also accept payment via credit card, debit card, HSA/FSA

card, personal check, and cash. Flexible payment plans may be available for those who

choose to self-pay.
