Why sport psychology is self-⁠pay

Insurance covers services it considers medically necessary, which generally means treatment for a diagnosable mental health condition. Performance work focuses on building mental skills, not treating a condition.

Performance sessions are skills-⁠based: focus, composure, confidence, and consistency. If other concerns come up, clinical services that may be covered by insurance can be arranged separately.

Cost questions

Does insurance cover psychological testing?

Many insurance plans cover psychological testing, but coverage depends on the provider, reason for testing, and specific insurance policy. Insurance does not cover testing for learning disorders because it isn't considered medically necessary. A quote of benefits is not a guarantee of payment. You will be responsible for any cost not covered by insurance.

What if my insurance doesn't cover testing?

Private-⁠pay options are available. See Insurance and Fees for details.

Is sport and performance psychology covered by insurance?

No. Insurance plans cover services they consider medically necessary, which generally means treatment for a diagnosable mental health condition. Performance work focuses on building mental skills, not treating a condition, so performance sessions are offered on a self-⁠pay basis.

What is a Good Faith Estimate?

If you don't have insurance or aren't using it, you have the right to a written estimate of your expected costs before services begin. If your bill is at least $400 more than the estimate, you can dispute it. Read the full notice.

Your right to a Good Faith Estimate

You have the right to receive 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 items and 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 1-⁠800-⁠985-⁠3059.
