Financial Agreement
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING AGREEMENT CAREFULLY. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE BRING THEM UP PRIOR TO YOUR FIRST SESSION BY PHONE OR EMAIL. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO SIGN AND SUBMIT THIS FORM PRIOR TO BECOMING A PATIENT AT FEELING GOOD WELLNESS CENTER. BY SIGNING THIS FORM, YOU ARE AGREEING TO THE TERMS OF FINANCIAL RESPONSIBILITY ASKED OF YOU IN ORDER TO BECOME A PATIENT OF FEELING GOOD WELLNESS CENTER.
Services at Feeling Good Wellness Center (FGWC) include but are not limited to psychotherapy, psychological testing, and evaluations, consultation with others about your care, reading supporting documents about your care and preparing documents for your care.
No services will be done without your prior agreement.
Our clinicians are considered out of network providers with all commercial insurance companies. This means you are responsible for making payments for the services you receive prior to the time of service. You will receive a payment request through text or email which will ask you to provide a payment or a credit card number. We use credible and secure payment platforms and do our part in keeping all financial information safe.
If you are interested in submitting claims to your insurance carrier you are welcome to ask your clinician for a superbill, which will be provided to you at no additional charge.
FGWC is not responsible for the transactions between you and your insurance carrier, nor does it guarantee payments from your insurance carrier.
All appointment cancellations or changes must be made within 48 hours (2 work days) prior to the appointed time. All late cancellations and appointment no-shows will be charged at the full rate. All cancellation notices must be made either by a phone call to the office (831-621-1150) or by email to info@feelinggoodtherapy.com
Should you choose to discontinue services before reaching your therapy goals, you are responsible for clearing payments for all the services you have received up to that point, there are no refunds for services rendered. You are not responsible for paying for any future appointments, should you cancel them within 48 hours (2 work days) prior to the appointed time.
In order to become a patient at FGWC, you are required to provide a valid credit card on file. Your credit card on file will only be charged for late cancellations or no-shows, as well as incidental charges that have not been cleared prior to or at the time of service. We keep your financial information confidential and use HIPPA regulations in the safe keep of your information. Please be prepared to provide a valid credit card to your clinician on the day of your first appointment.
Typically a standard therapy session is 50 minutes long. However, at FGWC we frequently tailor your therapy sessions as a double session which lasts 100 minutes or (1 hour and 40 minutes). This is to ensure a clinically beneficial and productive session in which there is ample time for treatment. The fee for double sessions is charged at our currently established hourly rates ($250 for psychotherapy, $300 for intake) times the number of hours per session. A typical intake meeting is, therefore, $600 and a typical weekly psychotherapy session is $500.
At FGWC we offer our clinical services within a course of treatment of 5 weeks at a time. Payment for each 5-week course of treatment is due on the first day of the treatments. Any credits left unused for the 5-week course of treatments will be kept for 90 days during which you'd have to either request a refund or use the credit. All unused credits that are passed 90 days are forfeited and no refunds will be available for them.
