Depending on your current health insurance provider or employee benefit plan, it is possible for counseling services to be covered in full or in part. Please contact your provider to verify how your plan compensates you for psychotherapy services.
We recommend asking these questions to your insurance provider to help determine your benefits:
• Does my health insurance plan include mental health benefits?
• Do I have a deductible? If so, what is it and have I met it yet?
• Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
• Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?

Psychological Testing and Evaluations
Our fees for psychological evaluations and testing is based on the type of assessment that is required and the specific reason for the assessment. Most insurance plans cover psychological evaluations, once the deductible has been met and some may require a testing authorization that must be obtained before testing begins.
The cost of your evaluation is determined by several factors, including (but not limited to) the type and number of psychological measures administered, the purpose of the assessment, and specific requirements of the recipient of the assessment. Your clinician will be able to discuss the costs in more detail. Each testing appointment can range anywhere from 1 to 4 hours. It is not uncommon for testing sessions to be completed over the course of two (or more sessions). Our typical turn around time for completed reports is 2-3 weeks from your last actual test administration. In some cases, a report can be completed quicker, but this would need to be discussed with your clinician beforehand and may require an additional “expedited” fee.
Payment
Pinnacle Health accepts cash and all major credit cards as forms of payment.
