Fees & Insurance

Fees

Using a highly individualized approach, Dr. Boutelle offers professional psychological and psychoanalytic services to individuals, couples, and families.

The fee for individual or couple’s therapy is $350 per 50-minute session for patients not using insurance. Dr. Boutelle offers his services on a sliding scale basis for patients who cannot afford the full fee upon verification of income.

For patients using healthcare benefits, co-payments are expected at the time of service. Cash and checks are accepted.

 

Insurance

Dr. Boutelle is an in-network provider for the following insurance companies:

  • Anthem Blue Cross
  • Blue Cross Blue Shield
  • CIGNA
  • Managed Health Network

For all other insurances, he is an out-of-network provider, which means he can provide you with a superbill which will include fees that you paid and your diagnosis. You would be responsible for your fee at the time of the appointment and at the end of the month you can submit the superbill to your insurance company for reimbursement.  Reimbursement rates vary.

Psychotherapy sessions are often covered in part by PPO health insurance plans. Please call your insurance company to verify your specific coverage. The following are some questions to ask:

  • Do I have mental/behavioral health insurance benefits?
  • What is my deductible and has it been met?
  • What is my copay for in-person and tele-therapy session?
  • How many sessions per year does my health insurance cover?
  • What is the coverage amount per therapy session for an out-of-network provider?
