Your right to a Good Faith Estimate

(Notice under the federal No Surprises Act)

You have the right to receive a "Good Faith Estimate" explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don't have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

• You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
• Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
• If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
• Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call the practice at 972-275-9885.

Telehealth disclosure

Wayfarer Strategic Counseling, PLLC provides services exclusively via telehealth (secure, real-time video) to adults located in the State of Texas at the time of service. Telehealth makes care more accessible, but it has limitations you should understand:

• Telehealth is not appropriate for psychiatric emergencies or for individuals who require a higher level of care.
• You are responsible for being in a private, safe location with a reliable internet connection during sessions.
• Technology may occasionally fail; if a connection is lost, we will follow a backup plan agreed upon in advance (typically a phone call).
• The same confidentiality protections and legal limits that apply to in-person counseling apply to telehealth.
• You have the right to decline telehealth and seek in-person services from another provider at any time.

The specific platform used is selected for its security and HIPAA considerations. Detailed informed consent for telehealth is reviewed and signed before services begin.

Emergencies

This practice does not provide emergency or crisis services and does not offer 24-hour coverage. If you are experiencing a mental health emergency, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), call 911, or go to your nearest emergency room. Additional resources are listed on the Contact page.
