Hi all, I know I do not post here regularly. I'm the first to admit that I am not a huge fan of putting myself out there on social media.
But, I feel the need to share this. If you ever wonder why mental health therapists are moving to self pay, the main reason is because insurance is awful. Here's a perfect example. No reason given except they don't want to pay. Caresourse has decided that they are going to lower our pay, AND go back years and take back payments they have already made to us in good faith under our agreed upon contract. Now, contrary to many opinions, mental health providers already don't make enough money to live on. Now we have to panic as Caresourse (market place and Medicaid) can just say we owe them thousands of dollars for services we have already rendered. And if you think it will stop with Caresourse, your in dream land.
Please as clients, contact them, tell them that you can't loose your therapist because they refuse to pay. Contract your representatives. If you are a therapist, get informed. There's a thread on Cincinnati therapist page with sample letters to send.
We love our jobs and our clients. Don't let insurance push us away. Also, insurances are looking into replacing us with AI.
