Maryland Medicaid
We accept Maryland Medicaid for eligible children, adolescents, and adults, including patients enrolled in several Maryland HealthChoice plans listed above. In Maryland, many specialty mental health services for Medicaid members are handled through the state's Public Behavioral Health System rather than directly through the HealthChoice plan, so our team will review your coverage with you before your visit.
Before Your First Visit, Please Check
- That your plan covers outpatient psychiatric services with our providers
- Your mental health benefits, copay, and deductible
- Whether a referral or prior authorization is required
- Whether telehealth visits are covered by your plan
Payment Options
Insurance billing
We bill your insurance directly for covered services. You are responsible for copays, deductibles, and any services not covered by your plan.
Self-pay
Self-pay is available. Please call our office for current rates. Payment is due at the time of service.
What to Bring
- Valid photo ID
- Insurance card (front and back)
- A list of current medications
- For minors: a parent or legal guardian
Cancellation Policy
Please give at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule. Late cancellations or missed appointments may result in a fee that is not covered by insurance.
