Affordable ADHD Treatment in NYC: What Are Your Options?

It can be challenging to find high-quality therapy for adult ADHD in NYC. It’s even harder to find affordable ADHD therapy in New York. In this article, I’ll break down the common payment structures you’ll encounter when it comes to ADHD therapy in New York.

Private Pay

This is often the most costly option—and unfortunately, a common one when it comes to ADHD therapy in NYC. Private pay means a provider does not accept insurance and services are paid for directly by the client. The provider sets the fee, and the client is responsible for paying it out of pocket. Using insurance is not an option in this case.

Insurance-Based Practice

This includes providers who accept insurance. You see the provider, and they submit a claim to the insurance company on your behalf. The insurance pays a portion—or sometimes the entirety—of the session cost. This is what most people hope to do. Understandably, they want to use their insurance.

This is how we operate at PRGRS Therapy. We accept insurance and provide high-quality ADHD care to adults in NY. It is our mission to make care as accessible as possible to New Yorkers.

Sliding Scale

This is when a provider offers their services at a lower rate than normal. Oftentimes, people offering a sliding scale do not accept insurance. However, they are willing to offer reduced fees to individuals who meet certain criteria.

Other Options

In addition to the options above, people can also use their out-of-network (OON) benefits to cover therapy for ADHD in NY. A client pays the full session fee upfront, submits a superbill (provided by the provider) to their insurance company, and then receives reimbursement.

Out-of-network benefits vary greatly, but if you have them, they can be very helpful. Some of our clients are reimbursed for up to 80% of session fees using OON benefits. Our practice also partners with a platform that handles the reimbursement process for you.

If you want to receive high-quality ADHD therapy and are wondering if you have OON benefits, set up a free call with us today. We’ll verify your benefits for you.

Conclusion

Finding affordable ADHD treatment in NYC may seem daunting, but there are more options available than many people realize. Whether you're looking to use insurance, explore sliding scale rates, or tap into your out-of-network benefits, you deserve access to high-quality, effective care. PRGRS Therapy is here to help guide you through the process and ensure you get the support you need.
