I am not able to propose an appropriate diagnosis or course of treatment for you until we have spent some time together.  As soon as I am able to identify a diagnosis and an appropriate course of treatment, I will discuss it with you.

 

Services are anticipated to be provided generally on a weekly basis until treatment is terminated.  Additional services may be recommended.  This estimate of your costs is only an estimate, and your actual charges may differ.  You have the right to initiate the patient–provider dispute resolution process if the charges you are actual billed substantially exceed the expected charges in this estimate. You may contact me directly if the billed charges are higher than this Good Faith Estimate, or you can start a dispute resolution process with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) directly.  If you choose to use the dispute resolution process, that will not adversely affect the quality of health care services I provide to you.  This estimate of costs is not a contract and does not obligate you to obtain clinical services from me.

 

This Good Faith Estimate of Costs is effective through the end of 2025.
