Paying with Health Insurance: You Must Verify Your Insurance

I want to use my insurance:          Insurance is a very complicated way to pay for anything these days.  I have tried to make paying for my services as simple as possible.  However, according to ALL insurance companies, it is the responsibility of the insured to make sure my services will be paid for. That means you making a phone call to your insurance company before your appointment day and talking to the customer service department.    

Regretfully, your session will not begin until proof of coverage is provided.  Please verify your insurance before arriving at the office.   

Here are the steps to take to  determine if your insurance will pay for your time with Summer:

To determine if you have mental health coverage through your insurance carrier, the first thing you should do is call them.  Check your coverage carefully and make sure you understand their answers.  Some helpful questions you can ask them:

1.  Please call your insurance and ask if :  MARGARET SUMMER ALLAN (WILSON) LCSW-S is an "in network provider" for your plan and give them her National Provider Identification number:   1225192867 

2.  Specifically ask if you have a "deductible" to pay and how much it is.  Then ask if you have a "co-pay" and how much it is.
