Confidential. No commitment. Have your insurance card handy and we will check your benefits, then call you back in plain language.
Three steps, zero pressure
- You send the form (or just call us with your insurance card handy).
- We check your benefits with your insurer: coverage for IOP, deductibles, and what your plan actually requires.
- We call or text you back and translate it into plain language, including your options if coverage falls short.
Prefer to skip the form? Call (512) 882-4599 or send us a message and we'll take it from there.
What we'll actually tell you
- If your plan will cover the cost of treatment at Empowered, and what portion is yours to carry.
- What your plan requires, like referrals or authorization, and how we handle those steps with you.
- What mental health parity means for you. Federal and state parity laws generally require insurance plans to cover mental health treatment comparably to physical health treatment. Plans still differ, which is why we verify instead of guessing.
- Your options if coverage is limited, including levels of care that may fit both your needs and your circumstances.
Your information is used for one purpose: checking your benefits. It's never sold, shared for marketing, or used to pressure you.
Insurance FAQs
Do you accept my insurance?
Coverage depends on your specific plan, not just your insurance company, so the honest answer requires looking at your benefits. Submit the form or call us, and we'll verify your coverage and explain it in plain language before you make any decisions.
Does insurance cover eating disorder IOP?
Many plans include coverage for intensive outpatient eating disorder treatment, and federal and state mental health parity laws generally require plans to cover mental health care comparably to medical care. The details vary widely by plan, which is exactly what verification is for. Our situations page on insurance and eating disorder treatment explains the landscape.
What if my plan doesn't cover treatment, or I don't have insurance?
Call us anyway. We'll talk through your options honestly, including self-pay conversations and other resources in the community. A benefits problem should never be the reason someone stops looking for help.
Is verification a commitment?
No. Verifying benefits costs nothing, obligates nothing, and doesn't notify anyone. It simply gives you real numbers and real options so you can make an informed decision.
Coverage questions shouldn't cost you another week.
Call now and we'll check your benefits while you're on the phone. Ten minutes of clarity beats a month of wondering.
