I know people were talking about insurance changes. I have BCBS and my copay went up about $11.00. What bothers me is that my T used to charge $150 for 90 minutes, and my copay was about $26. Now, for the same time period, it's billed as $150, and then $125 which I assume is for the extra 30 minutes. So she is getting $125 for 30 minutes? Is this the new law about times, so they have to do it this way? I will call insurance and ask, but I never understand their answers. My T has a billing person but I don't understand her either.

Between this $37/week new fee, my DBT which may be going up too, I'm not sure, and the pdoc, this is going to be difficult. I know it doesn't sound like a lot, but my H is retired and we can't keep spending so much. Maybe I will have to cut down to an hour but I don't want to do that. I'll ask my T if there is another way to bill it, but I doubt there is. I don't think she raised her fee, so why shouldn't she get $75 for another half session and not $125? Does this make sense?
