Billing & Insurance

We understand that seeking treatment for your mental health can be challenging and that the cost of treatment is a determining factor for many patients. We want you to have the information necessary to make the best decision for your treatment, and as such have created a list of charges for uninsured or self-pay patients.

*Please note that the rates listed below are for self-pay only, and amounts may differ for patients filing insurance claims.

Med Management

PRICING

New Patient Appointment- $200
Return Appointments- $120

NO SURPRISE FEES

Medication Management appointments are typically monthly when first starting new treatment, and go to 3-6 months once treatment is stable. Depending on your need, treatment may be short-term or ongoing. *Example:

Initial Med Management appointment- $200
One month follow-up- $100
Two month follow-up- $100
Three month follow-up- $100 (assuming stable treatment, the next follow up maybe scheduled 3 months out)

Therapy

PRICING

New Patient Appointment- $150

NO SURPRISE FEES

Therapy appointment frequency can range significantly, but is often 2-4 weeks initially, and progressing to longer times between appointments or completing treatment once goals are met. Your provider will discuss with you and determine how soon your follow-up appointments should be during the initial assessment and reassess this during those visits.

Example:
Initial Therapy appointment- $150
Month one (appointments 2 and 4 weeks out from initial visit) - $240
Month two (appointments 6 and 8 weeks out from initial visit) - $240
Month three (appointments 10 and 12 weeks out from initial visit) - $240
Month four (one appointment 4 weeks following previous visit) - $120
Month five (one appointment 4 weeks following previous visit) - $120
Month six (one appointment 4 weeks following previous visit) - $120
Month eight (one appointment 8 weeks following previous visit) - $120
Month 10 (one appointment 8 weeks following previous visit) - $120
Month 12 (one appointment 8 weeks following previous visit) - $120
Example annual cost for medication management: $1,590

Additional Fees and Services

LATE CANCEL FEE - $65

A late cancel is an appointment that is cancelled by the patient with less than 24-hours notice. Late cancel fees may only be removed at the provider’s discretion.

NO-SHOW FEE - $90

No-Show fees will be assessed to accounts when there has been no communication received when missing an appointment. No-Show fees may only be removed at the provider’s discretion.

DRUG SCREENS - $25 PER SCREEN

For certain controlled medications and for Medication-Assisted Therapy (MAT) such as Suboxone ®, drug screens are required to be collected at most appointments. For MAT, drug screens may also be collected at random times between appointments. Each Drug Screen is charged a flat $25.

*Disputed results may require lab confirmation. There is no additional charge from Hendricks Therapy for this service, however lab charges for confirmation and testing will apply.

PRESCRIPTION MANAGEMENT FEES

1st Prescription - $20

Each additional prescription - $10

Your provider will normally provide enough medication to last until your next appointment. Prescriptions are sent electronically to your designated pharmacy. Changing medications or pharmacies outside of an appointment time requires time and effort for your provider to ensure compliance and that your prescriptions are processed correctly. Prescription management fees may only be waived when a change is due to the provider or pharmacy.

Payment of fees is an important part of our work together. It is vital to maintain accurate phone and mailing contact information with our office.

Payment is expected at the time services are rendered, unless prior arrangements have been made. For your convenience, we accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards for payment. Should you have a balance due, a monthly account statement will be sent.

If you have a health insurance plan, your insurance company may reimburse your visits. It is your responsibility to obtain insurance pre-authorization for all office visits if required.

Our office will file most insurance claims for you; deductibles, co-pays, or co-insurance will be collected when services are rendered. Please note for insurance purposes only, Hendricks Therapy formerly operated as Hendricks County Psychotherapy.

Many of our therapists are contracted, in-network providers with the insurance carriers listed below (this may not be a complete list). Not all providers may be in all networks listed.

Important Note

Mental Health benefits in the majority of insurance plans are separate and different than traditional medical coverage. In addition, it is not uncommon for another company to serve as a contractor for your mental health benefits. THIS INFORMATION MAY NOT BE PROVIDED ON YOUR INSURANCE CARD. Please contact your insurance company to assure your intended provider is indeed in your network.
