Will My Insurance Cover the Cost of Treatment?
McCallum Place is an in network provider for many types of Blue Cross and Aetna Health plans. Even if you do not have a policy with one of these insurance companies, we will investigate your plan to determine to what extent you can utilize benefits. We recommend you consult with your insurance company to see if your treatment at McCallum Place will be covered under your individual policy and regarding prepays or coinsurance. We also gladly do this! Call Liz at ext. 34 or Monique at ext. 27 now to help you.
McCallum Place is not licensed as a Medicare or Medicaid provider. For those patients who are out-of-network, some or all of the cost of treatment may still be covered by your insurance company. If you are out of network, McCallum Place will submit claims on your behalf to your insurance company so that you may receive reimbursement from your insurance company up to the limits of your insurance coverage.
We always attempt to pre-certify treatment with your insurance company. Almost all of our patients receive some level of reimbursement from their insurance companies but insurance reimbursement varies widely by company and coverage type. It is a good idea to consult your insurance company directly prior to admission to determine what level of insurance reimbursement you can expect.
Note: We find families that advocate for themselves with insurance companies have the best success which is why we strongly recommend you get involved alongside us during this process. We will do everything in our power to help you access your benefits to support your treatment.
