Insurance
Insurance is not the best option for all. Patients can pay out of pocket via cash, check, credit card, or HSA. A sixty-minute intake session is $225. The forty-five-minute session rate is $160.
Dr. Buffy is in network with BCBS PPO and select HMO plans, Aetna, Humana, and Medicare. She may add further plans over time. Prospective patients are encouraged to check their individual plan for in-network and out-of-network benefits.
