​Dr Erickson is considered “in-network” with the following insurance companies:

Aetna

 

Most other health insurance plans classify Dr. Erickson as an out-of-network provider. If Dr. Erickson is not in-network with your plan and you have out-of-network benefits, your insurance company may reimburse you for a portion of your sessions. Coded statements can be submitted with a claim form to your insurance company for reimbursement. You should contact your insurance representative to inquire about mental health coverage, out-of-network providers, and reimbursement rates.

 

Payment is due at the time services are rendered.

Good Faith Estimate/No Surprises Act

Health care providers are legally required to give patients who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services. For self-pay patients, these are your legal rights to a Good Faith Estimate:

  1. You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services

  2. 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 for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service)

  3. If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill

  4. 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.
