Superbills, Sliding Scales, and OON: Understanding Therapy Payment Options
Therapy is a powerful investment in your mental health, but understanding how to pay for it can be confusing. If you've ever been unsure what "OON" or "superbill" means, you're not alone.
Let’s break it down.
What Does "OON" Mean?
OON stands for out-of-network. This means I don’t bill your insurance company directly, but you may still be eligible for reimbursement depending on your benefits.
What is a Superbill?
A superbill is a detailed invoice that you receive from me after your session. You can submit it to your insurance company for possible reimbursement.
Each superbill includes:
My provider information
The CPT (service) codes
Your diagnosis code (if applicable)
Session dates and fees
Many clients receive a portion of the session fee reimbursed within a few weeks, depending on their plan.
Do You Offer Sliding Scale?
I do offer limited sliding scale slots based on financial need. Please don’t hesitate to reach out and inquire about availability.
What if I Still Have Questions?
I’m always happy to discuss your options in a free 10-minute phone consultation. I know therapy is a financial commitment, and my goal is to make it as accessible and transparent as possible.
