Midtown Manhattan Psychiatry is out of network with all insurance carriers to provide premium psychiatry services without the limits of insurance. If you are seeking to use out-of-network insurance benefits, a superbill can be provided to you. Midtown Manhattan Psychiatry does not bill to or accept payments from Medicare or Medicaid, meaning that the practice does not accept patients with these insurances, even if they are self-pay. Coaching is not billable to insurance.
If you would like to check your out of network benefits with your current health insurance plan, it may be helpful to know the codes that would be billed to check for their reimbursement rate, in addition to knowing if there is a deductible that needs to be reached. The codes are below:

30 minute sessions: 99213 or 99214 (depending on complexity) and 90833
50 minute sessions: 99213 or 99214 (depending on complexity) and 90836
