Insurance and rates
At Serene Mind Counseling Services, we accept a variety of insurance plans including private insurance, all Louisiana Medicaid, and self-pay options. For those using private insurance, please note that the cost of services varies based on your individual policy. We will verify your benefits prior to your first session; however, this verification does not guarantee coverage. Co-pays, co-insurance, and self-pay amounts are due at the time of your session. You are also responsible for any denied claims or remaining balances from your insurance. If you do not have health insurance, the cost is $120 for a 50-minute session. We adhere to the Good Faith Estimate requirements, ensuring you are informed of expected charges for services, especially if you are uninsured or not filing a claim. You have the right to receive an estimate of your medical costs, and providers must give this estimate in writing at least one business day before your service. If your final bill exceeds the estimate by $400 or more, you can dispute the bill. For more details about your rights regarding Good Faith Estimates, please visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises.
