INFORMATION
At PickleTree, we strive to provide the highest quality comprehensive evaluations and treatment plans for our patients.
An investment in your family’s health is one that you will be happy you make, today, tomorrow, and in the future.
Our initial evaluations are comprehensive in nature, taking into account many aspects of our patients’ health, speech, feeding, and breathing. In order to hold the 90 minute appointment, we will collect a $150 non-refundable deposit. If you need to reschedule your appointment, please let our office know with at least 48 hours notice.
COMPREHESIVE EVALUATION
$375 (including $150 non-refundable deposit)
THERAPY:
The majority of our follow-up appointments are 45 or 60 minute appointments due to the individualized nature of our therapy sessions. It is highly recommended to schedule weekly appointments for the duration recommended by our therapists. This will help ensure the best therapeutic outcomes.
15 minutes - $40.00 (teletherapy follow-up only)
30 minutes - $80.00
45 minutes - $120.00 (recommended)
60 minutes - $160.00
CANCELLATION POLICY
Missed appointments/cancellation of less than 48 hours will result in a full-charge of the appointment if not rescheduled. We are happy to switch your appointment to a tele-therapy session, or find another available time in the near future. Please see our cancellation/rescheduling policy.
WE ARE A PRIVATE-PAY CLINIC AND ARE HAPPY TO PROVIDE A “SUPERBILL” FOR YOU TO SELF-SUBMIT TO YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY
PickleTree is an out-of-network provider for all insurance companies. We do not accept Medicare, Medicaid, or insurance payment for several reasons. Accepting insurance means insurance companies can dictate how often, for how long, and what types of treatment you may receive. We believe that decision is best made by the patient/family and therapist working together.
Payment is due at the time of service. PickleTree is not currently an “in-network” provider for insurance companies, and does not submit claims directly to insurance companies.
However, some of our patients choose to submit out of network claims for their services with us. Patients using this approach pay for sessions at the time of service and then receive reimbursement for therapy services directly from their insurance companies. Please check with your provider to find out about your out-of-network benefits.*
If you would like to use insurance in this manner, we will provide you with billing statements that can be submitted to your insurance company. These billing statements are called “Superbills” and can be processed for our clients within 10 business days of requesting them.
Getting Reimbursed for Out-of-network Services
Just because we do not accept insurance does not mean you cannot use your coverage. First find out what your out-of-network benefits are.
*Questions to ask your insurance company:
Do I have out-of-network benefits for therapy with a licensed speech-language pathologist? What are the benefits?
Is there a limit to the number of sessions I can use under these benefits?
What percentage of the service fee is covered?
Do I need to submit any forms to use my out-of-network benefits?
Are Telehealth Sessions reimbursable?
Once you know that you will qualify for out-of-network benefits our office will be happy to prepare a SuperBill for you.
