This is a giant hijack - but to answer - yes I would really not. I have really not consented when still able to speak and happily, the ambulance driver did not try to insist.

But back to therapist and insurance - I think it may be good with this therapist to let them know you review the insurance logs.

I have insurance through work, but it only covers therapy through reimbursement. I have not applied for reimbursement and don't intend to. As one of the therapists I see warns, even to process a claim for reimbursement, the insurance company may ask that confidential information be disclosed. It makes therapy very expensive but preferable to my information going in some database somewhere.

Unfortunately I can't afford therapy without insurance right now. As it is, we pay $600 a month for our insurance. But it's good.

I can barely afford it, especially since adding a second therapist. Somehow having my physical medical history on file doesn't bother me, though probably it should, but mental health is a dealbreaker. So I'll cut corners financially elsewhere as long as I can.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
