Below you will find information on my office policies, fees and billing, as well as paperwork necessary for your first appointment.
Scheduling an Appointment: In order to schedule an initial intake appointment, please contact Dr. Lambert info@ashlylambertphd.com 206.484.6188
Fees, Billing, & Insurance: Questions for Insurance: In order to fully understand your insurance benefits, the following are helpful questions to ask your provider prior to our first appointment:
What is your outpatient mental health coverage? For some medical policies, mental health coverage is provided by a different insurance company and it is possible that I may be considered out-of-network for mental health coverage.
Do you need pre approval or a referral from your primary care physician prior to our first appointment?
What is your deductible and does the deductible apply to mental health coverage?
What is your copay?
Do you have coinsurance? If so, what is the coverage?
What are your mental health benefits for in-network providers and/or out-of-network providers?
Fees:
First appointment (intake) 90791: $250
Subsequent individual follow-up appointments:
90837 (53+ minutes): $220
90834 (38+ minutes): $165
Couples (90 minutes): $330
I most often recommend that couples schedule a double session lasting approximately 90 minutes as I find it most helpful to hold longer sessions in order to accommodate the complexity of working with couples. These sessions are billed at $330 and are usually not covered by insurance.
All other services will be billed on a prorated basis of $220/hour. Phone calls over 10 minutes will be charged accordingly. These rates apply to both phone and video sessions
