Insurance Information

Do you take my insurance?
The NW Anxiety Institute is a contracted provider with Kaiser Permanente and requires an internal referral. We are also credentialed with the Oregon Health Plan (OHP/Medicaid). We are not in-network for any other insurance companies.

Can I still get reimbursed by my insurance company?
Most insurance plans do provide the opportunity to apply for reimbursement for therapy services received from out-of-network providers. In instances of insurance reimbursement, we ask each individual to pay for services and accept reimbursement from the insurance. You will be provided with a bi-monthly billing statement for the services rendered and fees paid to submit to your insurance. Please call your insurance company before your admission and ask the following questions:
​

• Does my insurance plan have out-of-network mental health benefits?
• What is my annual deductible and has it been met for this year?
• When does my calendar year start?
• How many sessions per the calendar year does my plan cover?
• Is an authorization required? If yes, how do I obtain it?
• What percent of treatment is reimbursed per visit for an out-of-network provider?
• What is the dollar amount recognized per visit (usual and customary rate or UCR)?
• What forms do I need to submit for reimbursement? (Note: most insurance companies require that you submit a Monthly Billing Statement and a Treatment Plan from your therapist together with a standard HCFA 1500 claim form completed by you. Find out if there are any other forms required and how to obtain them).
• What address should I mail my claims to?
• Are there any time limitations on filing my claims for reimbursement?
• If interested in the Focus Program: Am I eligible for reimbursement for out-of network intensive outpatient services provided by the NW Anxiety Institute Intensive Outpatient Program NPI# 1043649080?
