YOUR RIGHTS AND PROTECTIONS AGAINST SURPRISE

 MEDICAL BILLS

(OMB Control Number: 0938-1401)

​

What is “balance billing” (sometimes called “surprise billing”)?

​

As Baobab Counseling Center is an outpatient provider and accepts private pay only, they do not accept insurance. “Out-of-network” describes providers and facilities that haven’t signed a contract with your health plan. 

​

“Surprise billing” is an unexpected balance bill. You will discuss with Baobab staff prior to beginning your treatment the cost you will pay per service type. The list of all fees for each service type is listed below. The list of all fees for each service type is also listed in the No Surprise Act Informed Consent signed upon beginning treatment.

​

If you believe you’ve been wrongly billed, you may contact: Georgia Secretary of State at (404) 651-8600
