More information on payments and coverage
Because we accept insurance, we can reduce out-of-pocket expenses and still offer high-quality care. You may not have any cost related to your visit with us, depending upon your insurance plan. Most patients pay a small copay per visit, subject to any deductible or coinsurance that your health plan has. The Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services determines appropriate billing guidelines. These guidelines depend on the length of the visit and the complexity and severity of your diagnosis. For this reason, we need to wait until after the visit for the final determination. We then submit the claim to your insurance company. The charges are calculated based upon pre-negotiated prices with your insurance company. Your insurance company will then determine what amount, if any, is your responsibility per your insurance plan.

This doctor is very professional, and a great listener. I really enjoyed having her as my provider. I felt well taken care of.

Was a waste of time. She said she can’t help me because I need to see someone in person I guess she is so afraid of Covid that her health comes first. I have been begging for help from a qualified Psychiatrist for weeks. I can’t find anyone anywhere near me in Princeton NJ. who is willing to help me manage my bipolar disorder.
The state of healthcare in the country is obviously geared toward the profits of Doctors and insurance companies.
My mental health is of no concern to either of those groups. You have to be rich to afford mental health care. I’m not rich so I will have to suffer alone.
Thanks for nothing!
