Insurance limitations
Only services that are medically necessary can be billed to medical insurance which means that services can only be billed when there is a diagnosable mental health issue.
Medical insurances can not be used when the treatment focus is not on a mental health issue.
A desired goal of improving communication and or strengthen ones relationship is not considered a medically necessary need and is not billable to medical insurance. In such situations services can be obtained by paying out of pocket.
