Fees & Insurance
Leighton accepts insurance and also sees clients who pay for sessions themselves. Here's what to know about cost before you start.
Coverage
Insurance
Leighton accepts insurance. Natural State Women's Wellness is in network with [IN-NETWORK PLANS — e.g. Arkansas Blue Cross Blue Shield, once her own contract is confirmed].
Before your first session, it's a good idea to call the member services number on your insurance card and ask:
- Is outpatient mental health care covered, and do I need a referral or pre-authorization?
- What is my deductible, and how much of it have I met this year?
- What will my copay or coinsurance be per session?
- Are telehealth (video) sessions covered the same way as in-person sessions?
Your plan decides what it covers and what you owe. Coverage isn't guaranteed, and you're responsible for any amount your plan doesn't pay.
[UNCONFIRMED — verify before launch] Out of network? If your plan isn't listed, Leighton may be able to provide a superbill (a detailed receipt) that you can submit to your insurer for possible out-of-network reimbursement. Check your plan's out-of-network mental health benefits first.
Rates
