At PALS, we operate as an out-of-network provider with all insurance panels. Please be advised that we do not directly bill insurance companies.  However, we are happy to provide a Superbill upon request, which you can submit to your insurance company for potential reimbursement. If you are seeking reimbursement, please keep in mind that many insurance providers require preauthorization before in-person testing starts. Our PALS providers are ready to assist with any necessary documentation, but it's important for clients to ensure the correct forms are provided to the PALS provider. We do accept FSA & HSA Card Payments. 

Before in-person testing, your PALS provider will give you a Welcome Letter and a Good Faith Estimate. These documents include essential information for your insurance provider, such as CPT codes, NPI numbers, the EIN, and diagnosis codes. It is essential you contact your insurance company for any questions regarding coverage.

We recognize that testing can be a considerable financial commitment for families, but the consequences of a misdiagnosis can be even more costly. Typically, comprehensive testing is a one-time investment that can save both time and money in the future. An accurate assessment and diagnosis ensure that your resources are directed towards interventions and therapies that are truly beneficial for you or your child’s specific needs.
