Cancellations

Vanessa sees a limited number of clients so that she can be at her best with each client and provide them with excellent quality care. It is difficult for her to fill a canceled appointment with short notice. Therefore, Vanessa charges her full fee for all appointments cancelled with less than 48 hours notice. Insurance does not cover late cancellations, therefore, it is your responsibility for payment in these circumstances. Thank you for understanding.

Good Faith Estimates

As of January 1st, 2022, medical and mental health providers are required to provide you with a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost. Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical services: 

- You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

- Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

- If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate. 

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 800-985-3059.
