Good Faith Estimate notice

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under federal law, health care providers must give clients who don't have insurance, or who aren't using insurance, an estimate of the bill for services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency services, including psychotherapy. Make sure your provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your scheduled service. You can also ask for one before you schedule.

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