Insurance

The Mindfulness & Change Group accepts the following insurance only: Blue Cross/Blue Shield (BCBS).  For BCBS PPO plans, prior authorization IS NOT required.  For BCBS HMO and POS plans, prior authorization IS required prior to starting testing.  Please note that BCBS does not cover testing solely for vocational or educational purposes.  

Deductibles

If you would like to use your BCBS insurance and your plan has a deductible, you will need to pay MCG directly until your deductible is met before MCG can bill your insurance.  MCG will submit a detailed bill to BCBS documenting all deductible payments made to us.  

Fixed Fee Evaluations

MCG offers fixed fee evaluations for those who would like a "rapid report" (typically 2-3 weeks, start to finish, regardless of insurance) and those who have other insurances.  MCG offers three types of fixed fee evaluations: (1) $3,000 for a comprehensive neuropsychological or psychological evaluation; (2) $1,500 for an AD/HD, dyslexia, academic resource center, or personality evaluations; (3) $1,000 for intellectual testing only (often required by private and independent schools for admission) and second opinions on evaluations done by other, non-affiliated providers.
