How quickly can a referred patient be seen?

Use our referral process or call us to discuss current scheduling options for an initial 60–75 minute evaluation. For urgent clinical situations, call us directly rather than waiting for a telehealth appointment.

Yes — this is core to our model. You receive a structured clinical summary within 48 hours of each visit with the patient's diagnosis, treatment plan, medications prescribed, and next appointment date.

What insurances do you accept?

We accept Aetna, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare, Humana, Medicare, and TRICARE across most states. We also offer self-pay at $150/session. Patients can verify their benefits before their first appointment.

Can you prescribe controlled substances via telehealth?

Yes, under current federal DEA regulations (Ryan Haight Act waiver extended through 2025), our DEA-registered PMHNPs can prescribe Schedule II–V controlled substances including stimulants for ADHD via telehealth — with appropriate clinical evaluation.
