No Surprises Act
& Good Faith Estimate

Under the No Surprises Act, you have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of the cost of your care. This law is designed to protect you from unexpected medical bills and to give you a clear understanding of what to expect financially.​

​

 

What is a Good Faith Estimate?

 

A Good Faith Estimate (GFE) is an estimate of the expected costs for your therapy services.

​

For therapy, this typically includes the cost of your scheduled sessions over a period of time (up to 12 months). Because therapy is individualized, the total cost will depend on how often you choose to attend and how long you remain in care.

​

Your estimate will not include charges that cannot be predicted in advance, such as missed appointment or late cancellation fees.

​

​

What to Expect

 

When you schedule services with Modern Woman Therapy, you will receive:

​

  • A written Good Faith Estimate outlining the expected cost of your services

  • Information about your rights under the No Surprises Act

 

You will receive your estimate:

  • At least 1 business day before your first scheduled session

  • Or within 3 business days of scheduling, if your appointment is booked at least 10 business days in advance

​

Because this is a private-pay practice, your session fees are clearly outlined upfront—so you can move forward without worrying about unexpected costs.

 

 

Your Rights

 

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate in writing before your services begin.

​

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you have the right to dispute the charge.
