Insurance Reimbursement If you have a health insurance policy, it will usually provide some coverage for mental health treatment. I will facilitate your receipt of the benefits to which you are entitled including filling out forms and speaking with insurance representatives. You will be held responsible for full payment of our agreed upon fee should your insurance company deny benefits or should your coverage lapse. Therefore, it is very important that you find out exactly what mental health benefits your insurance policy covers. Read your plan carefully and call your service representative if you have questions. Many insurance plans require advance authorization before they will provide reimbursement for mental health services. These plans often are oriented toward a short-term model and provide only a certain amount of sessions per year. Many insurance companies may only authorize a few sessions at a time and I will need to periodically call them to authorize additional sessions. When I call to authorize treatment or continue our sessions, I will provide them with the minimum amount of information needed, usually including a diagnosis, goals for treatment, and a brief summary of your current functioning. It is possible, but very rare, that they would require a copy of my clinical record. This information will become part of insurance company files and is likely to be computerized. All insurance companies claim to keep such information confidential, but once it is in their hands, I have no control over what they do with it. In some cases, they may share the information with a national medical information data bank. By signing this Agreement, you agree that I can provide requested information to your insurance carrier. If you request it, I will provide you with a copy of any report that I am asked to submit. I make it my policy to inform you along the way of where we stand with your insurance company and what kind of information they have requested. Should insurance coverage end for some reason, we can discuss an out-of-pocket session fee. You can always choose to select this option and have the right to pay for my services yourself to avoid the complexities of the insurance industry.
Insurance Endorsements The insurance policies shall contain the following provisions, or Consultant shall provide endorsements on forms supplied or approved by the City to add the following provisions to the insurance policies:
Hazard Insurance All buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer acceptable under the Fxxxxx Mae Guides, against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are provided for in the Fxxxxx Mxx Guides or by the Fxxxxxx Mac Guides, in an amount representing coverage not less than the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loans and (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the Mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, it is included under the coverage afforded by a blanket policy for the project. If required by the FDPA, the Mortgage Loan is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration and conforming to Fxxxxx Mxx and Fxxxxxx Mac requirements, in an amount not less than the amount required by the FDPA. Such policy was issued by an insurer acceptable under the Fxxxxx Mae Guides or the Fxxxxxx Mac Guides. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and upon the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor. All such standard hazard and flood policies are in full force and effect and on the date of origination contained a standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller and its successors in interest and assigns as loss payee; such clause is still in effect and all premiums due on any such policies have been paid in full. No originator, seller, prior owner of the Mortgage Loan, borrower or any other Person, has engaged in any act or omission that would impair the coverage of any such insurance policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for therein, or the validity and binding effect of either, including, without limitation, the provision or receipt of any unlawful fee, commission, kickback, or other compensation or value of any kind. No action, inaction, or event has occurred and no state of facts exists or has existed that has resulted or will result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any such insurance policies, regardless of the cause of such failure of coverage.
