How does Thriveworks verify my insurance?
Thriveworks follows a specific process to verify your insurance coverage for mental health services:
1. When you book an appointment, you’ll be asked to provide your current insurance information. This can be done online or over the phone.
2. Thriveworks will attempt to verify your benefits on your behalf. We use this information to confirm that you are active with your insurance and estimate your coverage and potential out-of-pocket costs.
3. While Thriveworks verifies your provider is in-network before your appointment, we strongly recommend checking with your insurance provider directly to confirm coverage details and avoid unexpected costs.
4. When contacting your insurance provider, ask about:
- Whether Thriveworks is in-network with your plan
- What your benefits include
- Your deductible amount
- Co-payment or co-insurance amounts
What Thriveworks services are covered by insurance?
Thriveworks accepts a wide range of insurance plans for various mental health services, including but not limited to:
1. Individual therapy
2. Couples therapy
3. Family therapy
4. Psychiatry and medication management
To determine the exact coverage for Thriveworks services under your insurance plan, we recommended contacting your insurance provider directly to confirm your mental health benefits before you book your first session.
Can I get a personal cost estimate?
Yes, to get a personal price estimate, you can:
1. Call us directly to discuss your specific situation and get detailed pricing information.
2. Check the profile of a specific clinician on our website, which lists their exact self-pay rates for a first (intake) session and subsequent sessions.
If using insurance, many clients only pay a co-pay ranging from $0 to $55 per session. The exact amount depends on your plan’s specific benefits.
If I’m prescribed medication, does insurance cover that cost?
It depends on your specific insurance plan. Coverage for prescription medications is separate from the coverage for psychiatric services, so we recommend contacting your insurance provider directly to ask about your prescription drug benefits. Inquire about any co-pays or deductibles that may apply to psychiatric medications, as well as any restrictions or prior authorization requirements.

Does Thriveworks accept Medicaid?
No, Thriveworks does not accept Medicaid at this time. We recommend contacting Medicaid directly for assistance on finding services covered under your plan.
