Good Faith Estimate and No Surprises Act

• You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical and mental health care will cost if you are not utilizing health insurance. 

​

• Under the law, health care providers need to give clients who are not using health insurance an estimate of the expected charges for medical services, including psychotherapy services. 

​

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency healthcare services, including psychotherapy services. 

​

• You can ask your health care provider and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule a service. 

​

• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill. Make sure you save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
