Insurance & Self-Pay Options
Review accepted insurance plans, self-pay fees, benefit-verification guidance, and Good Faith Estimate information before scheduling.
Coverage, copays, deductibles, authorization requirements, and patient responsibility vary by individual plan. Confirm your benefits before your first appointment.
Selected Insurance Plans
EscapeMind Psychiatry currently lists participation with the plans below. Each insurer may offer multiple products and networks, so participation must be confirmed for your specific policy.
Cigna
Aetna
UnitedHealthcare
Empire Blue Cross Blue Shield
Oxford
Oscar
Carelon
Self-Pay Available
Please verify your benefits: Listing an insurance company does not guarantee that every product, network, appointment type, or service is covered. Contact your insurer and the practice before scheduling.
Transparent Self-Pay Fees
Self-pay options are available for patients who are uninsured, out of network, or choose not to use insurance. Confirm current fees directly with the practice before scheduling.
Initial Psychiatric Evaluation
Comprehensive new-patient assessment and diagnostic planning.
Medication Management Follow-Up
Ongoing review of symptoms, medication response, side effects, and progress.
Extended Follow-Up
A longer follow-up for greater clinical complexity or additional discussion.
Urgent Established-Patient Consultation
Time-sensitive, non-emergency support when clinically appropriate and available.
Administrative services, forms, records, missed appointments, or other non-covered services may have separate fees. Confirm all applicable charges with the practice.
Understanding Patient Responsibility
What May Affect Your Out-of-Pocket Cost?
Your responsibility depends on the terms of your individual insurance policy, not only whether the practice is listed as participating.
Copay
A fixed amount that may be due for each covered appointment.
Deductible
The amount you may need to pay before your plan begins covering eligible services.
Coinsurance
A percentage of the allowed charge that may remain your responsibility after the deductible.
Authorization & Network
Some services may require prior authorization, referrals, or use of a specific network or product.

Contact the practice before your appointment when you have questions about billing or payment arrangements.
No Surprises Act
Good Faith Estimate Information
Patients who are uninsured or who choose not to use insurance may request a Good Faith Estimate of expected charges for scheduled services.
The estimate is based on information available when it is prepared. Actual charges may change when the type, frequency, or scope of services changes.
Keep a copy of your estimate and contact the practice when the expected care plan changes or you have billing questions.
