Billing and Insurance

As a consumer of services, you do have options other than insurance, including paying Tabono directly. While slightly more costly, there are numerous advantages to not billing your insurance provider.

You have more control.
When insurance is involved, the policy can dictate who you see, the number of sessions allowed, and even the course of treatment. When you pay directly for services, your clinician works with you to determine goals, treatment interventions, and the number of sessions needed.
Reasons for treatment.
At times, individuals seek therapy simply for support adapting to some stressor or to learn better ways of managing emotions and behavior. Unfortunately, all insurance companies require formal diagnosis to reimburse for counseling. Once submitted to insurance, these diagnoses are documented and may become preexisting conditions, which may adversely affect future applications for insurance.
Ownership.
When you pay without the use of insurance, you are the sole owner of your information. Insurance carriers are allowed to request information about diagnoses, treatment plan/progress, clinical summaries, and even request copies of the clinical record. While such information is reportedly kept confidential, once it is submitted, it is no longer in the control of Tabono.

At Tabono, we recognize that mental health services can be costly. We actively work toward being included on most major insurance plans, but you should first contact your insurance carrier to see if we are covered by your policy. Below is a list (updated regularly) of currently accepted insurance.

Aetna
Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield
Medical Mutual
Optum/United Behavioral Health

If Tabono is not a covered provider by your insurance, we can provide the necessary documentation for you to submit directly to your insurance company for reimbursement.
