Fees, Health Insurance, and other Information
How My Practice Is Funded
My services are NOT supported by any governmental, ecclesiastical, or non-profit agency.
I am on a "fee for service" basis only.
I seek to serve my clients in the most professional, efficient, and confidential manner possible.
Basically, I work for my clients by the hour as an individual professional and, in doing so, I maximize quality, confidentiality, and personal contact, but minimize cost, overhead, and service time.

I am willing to work with any other insurance plan to get you the best coverage for my services. I typically accept assignment on any insurance which allows it. Contact me at my office phone number (210) 392-5506 for more information.
CREDIT CARDS ACCEPTED:
VISA, MASTERCARD, AMERICAN EXPRESS
PAYMENT METHODS:
I accept Cash, Checks or Credit Cards for payment.
I bill the Insurance Company for the "Insurance Portion" of the fee.
Usually, I request some payment (usually a co-pay) at the time of service, mainly to minimize the cost of billing at a later time.
With INSURANCE REIMBURSEMENT, what this means is that, once the deductible has been met, all you would have to pay is a co-pay, and I would bill the insurance carrier for their portion of the fee.
Should You Use Your Health Insurance or Not?
*Information about your case may be reviewed by employees of the insurance company and a separate managed care company.
*Insurance companies put confidential information in computers, perhaps secured, perhaps not.
Managed care companies make money by reducing treatment time and basing decisions on formulas for average cases.
*Mental Health insurance benefits can only be used for the treatment of an illness, requiring a diagnosis of a mental disorder. Choosing NOT to use health insurance benefits means you do not have to have a psychiatric diagnosis in your file.
