Insurance Accepted for Some Providers (In-Network)

Brave is happy to share that two of our providers are now in network with UHC, Oxford, Oscar, UMR, Optum & Aetna through Alma. Alma is a third party biller and you will need to complete a few additional steps to see us using Alma.

  1. Our admin will collect all of your information to put into Alma, including your insurance information and a credit card to collect your copay. 
  2. Alma will then verify your insurance, this can take from a few hours to a couple of days depending on your insurance.
  3. You will receive an email from Alma with your expected financial responsibility per session. If you have a deductible Alma will inform you once that deductible is met via another email during your time in treatment.
  4. Alma will charge your card 3 days after your session is billed by Brave. This means your copay may come out of your account 3-5 days after your scheduled appointment.

If you would like to see our therapist Seth Showalter, LCSW or our Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner Dr. Aisha Ahmouda using in-network benefits through one of the above mentioned plans please fill out the consultation request form.

Providers we are currently out of network with:

  • Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield
  • MO Health
  • Healthy Blue
  • US Health Group
  • Medicare
  • Medicaid

Explanation of Benefits for Out-of-Network

Before you begin therapy, you’ll receive an email from Simple Practice. The subject of the email will be “Client Portal” and will be sent from your therapist @simplepractice.com. Your client portal will have all of the intake paperwork that needs to be completed before your first session.

If you’re having trouble accessing Simple Practice, please reach out to admin@brave-mo.com for assistance. 

  1. Complete the 2-minute SuperPay onboarding (https://app.thesuperbill.com/superpay-sign-up).
  2. Brave Counseling and Psychiatry collects future payments from you through SuperPay.
  3. SuperBill automatically files & tracks your claims to get you reimbursed.
  4. If your claims are ever denied, SuperBill handles the appeals process, and their expert customer support team is available to you every step of the way.
  5. You receive reimbursement directly from your insurer based on your out-of-network benefits.

Going to therapy means making an important investment in your emotional health. Therapy rates vary based on the therapist and session length. Cost should never get in the way of therapy, and many of our therapists offer reduced rates on a sliding scale.

Unsure if you’re eligible for insurance reimbursement? Dealing with insurance companies can be a confusing and frustrating experience. You can use the Insurance Benefits Lookup Tool to check your out-of-network benefits. This tool will give you an initial estimate of what you may expect to pay and be reimbursed for therapy.

Please confirm the estimated reimbursement amount with your insurance company as they will have the most up-to-date information.

Questions to ask your insurance representative:

  • “Does my plan include out-of-network benefits for mental health care? Specifically, for outpatient psychotherapy?”
  • “Do I have a deductible for out-of-network mental health services? If yes, what is the remaining amount I will have to pay before my health plan starts to reimburse me for fees that I pay out-of-pocket?”
  • “What is the maximum amount my plan will reimburse for mental health service code 90837 with a Psychotherapist?” If the rep does not provide a clear answer, ask: “What is the maximum allowed amount for mental health service code 90837 with a psychotherapist, and what percentage of the maximum allowed amount will my plan pay?” (This percentage of the maximum allowed amount is the amount you would receive as reimbursement.)

Once you’ve confirmed your out-of-network benefits, your therapist will enroll you in courtesy claims submission with Superpay. You will then be able to log into your Superpay Client Portal to track your claims. Superpay will submit your claims to your insurance provider after each session.

Depending on what you’ve set up with your insurance company, you may receive your reimbursement by ACH deposit or check. This usually takes between 2-4 weeks. This will occur until your plan rolls over and your deductible resets. Depending on your plan, this usually happens in January or July, or when you start a new policy.

If your insurance or credit card information changes or expires, please make sure to update your information by emailing admin@brave-mo.com or calling 573-825-6441.
