Good Faith Estimate
A good faith estimate provided by a psychologist office is a document that outlines the estimated costs for the various services that the psychologist will provide to the patient. It includes information on the hourly rate, the duration of the sessions, and any additional fees that may be incurred, such as for tests or assessments. The purpose of a good faith estimate is to help patients understand the costs associated with receiving psychological services and to allow them to compare offers from different providers to find the best deal.
