Today, many insurance plans require you to pay a certain percentage of your health care expenses. For example, you may be required to pay $10 every time you visit the doctor or $20 whenever you visit the emergency room. Sometimes you must pay a higher "co-pay" if you have not received approval from your primary care physician to see a particular specialist or go to the emergency room. It is best to find out what kind of co-pay you have for mental health visits. Payment is usually expected at the time of the service.
As a reminder, if you do need to cancel your appointment, please call the office as soon as possible to inform them.
