If you live on the East End and you're trying to find a therapist who actually takes your insurance, you've probably hit a wall. Many practices have started going out-of-network and asking clients to pay $200+ per session and 'submit for reimbursement.' This guide walks through how to find genuinely in-network therapy on the East End.
Common insurances on Long Island's East End
Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare (with Optum Behavioral Health), Oxford Health Plans, Northwell Direct, Empire BlueCross BlueShield, MVP, Healthfirst.
Happy Pro Counseling's in-network panels
We currently accept Aetna, Cigna, UnitedHealthcare/Optum, Oxford, and Northwell Direct. If you have one of these, your typical out-of-pocket is just your copay — usually $20-$50.
What to ask any potential therapist
- Are you in-network with my specific plan?
- Will you bill them directly?
- What's the typical wait for a first appointment?
- Do you offer telehealth at the same rate?
