FAQs about Aetna and Prosper Health

How long does it take to start therapy with Aetna coverage?

Starting therapy is quick and simple. Just fill out a few questions here and we will verify your insurance within 24 hours. Once you complete a few intake forms, you’ll be able schedule your first session!

Will my therapy sessions be confidential when billed through insurance?

Your information is strictly confidential. To process insurance reimbursements, we must share essential details such as service dates and times, therapy format, diagnosis codes, and other logistical requirements. However, we disclose only what is necessary. In rare cases where safety is an immediate concern, confidentiality may be waived—but even then, we limit disclosure to only the essential information needed to ensure safety and comply with legal and ethical obligations.

What happens if my Aetna plan changes or ends?

No need to worry! If your plan changes, we'll help you transition to your new insurance if it's in our network. If you lose coverage, you can continue seeing your therapist as a self-pay client without interruption.

Can I still see a therapist if Aetna is out-of-network?

Yes! While we accept most Aetna plans, there are a few exceptions (e.g., Aetna managed Medicare/Medicaid plans). You're welcome to see our therapists as a self-pay client if your plan is out-of-network. We'll provide clear, guaranteed pricing information upfront.

What happens if Aetna denies my claim?

We've got you covered! If Aetna denies your claim, you won't be responsible for any additional costs. We follow a No Surprise Billing policy to ensure up front pricing transparency and financial peace of mind.

Will I need to pay for services upfront?

No upfront payment required! While we'll ask for a credit card on file before service, you'll only be charged after your session. We'll always provide clear pricing information before services, and charges are processed within a few days of your appointment.
