Paying for care
Insurance & Cash-Pay Options
Cost shouldn't be the reason care waits. Here's how visits are covered, whether you're using insurance or paying directly.
In-network insurance
Accepted plans
Kind Nursing Psychiatry is in-network with the following plans. Coverage and copays are typically confirmed before your first visit.
Don't see your plan?
Out-of-network & self-pay
If your plan isn't listed, ask about out-of-network benefits — many PPO plans offer partial reimbursement for out-of-network psychiatric care. Self-pay (cash-pay) visits are also available for patients who prefer not to use insurance. Contact the office for current self-pay rates and out-of-network billing details.
