Insurance and Payment
Prickly Pear Therapy accepts select insurance plans. Coverage varies by clinician and service, so please contact us and verify your benefits directly with your insurance provider before scheduling.
Before Your First Appointment
Verify Your Benefits
Before scheduling, call the member services number on your insurance card and ask whether Prickly Pear Therapy and your selected clinician are in network. Confirm your deductible, copay or coinsurance, and whether authorization or a referral is required.
Your Right to a Good Faith Estimate
Under the No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your mental health care will cost before you commit to anything. Ask us and we will provide one.
