Private pay
Prefer not to use insurance, or need a service your plan does not cover? Ask about private-pay availability and fees before scheduling.

Questions about getting care
Do I need a doctor’s referral?
You can contact Help Therapy directly to request care. Some insurance plans and certain services require a referral or authorization before appointments can begin. Our team can help clarify the requirements for your situation.
Can I use my insurance?
Help Therapy accepts over 50 insurance plans. Whether a specific appointment is covered depends on your plan, the provider, the service, and any authorization requirements. Share your insurance details with our team so we can help review your options.
Can I request a specific provider?
Yes. Include the provider’s name in your care request. Scheduling depends on availability, clinical fit, location, and insurance participation.
How soon can I get an appointment?
Timing varies by service, provider availability, location, and insurance requirements. After reviewing your request, our team will explain the available next steps.
Can I refer a family member or patient?
Yes. The same care request form can be used to request help for yourself, a loved one, or a patient. Share the information requested in the form and identify your relationship to the patient.
Is telehealth available?
Telehealth is available with participating providers. The patient’s location, the requested service, clinical considerations, and coverage requirements determine which options are available.
