  • Does my plan limit how many sessions per calendar year I can have? If so, what is the limit?
  • Do I need written approval from my primary care physician in order for services to be covered?
  • What would be covered if I worked with an out-of-network provider?
  • What is the process to be reimbursed for out of network benefits?
