Rates
Rates for services differ based on the type of service provided and also by the provider. Click below to view the current rates for each provider.
Payment
Cash, check, and all major credit cards are accepted as forms of payment. We also accept Health Savings Accounts as a form of payment.
Cancellation Policy
If you are unable to attend a session, please make sure you cancel at least 48 hours beforehand. You will be charged for the full rate of the session if you cancel with less than 48 hours notice. Any no-show appointment will be charged the full rate of the session. Please note: the fee paid for an appointment that wasn’t attended will not be reimbursed by insurance.
In the case of inclement weather, we have a HIPAA compliant Telehealth system to conduct video sessions. Most insurance companies will reimburse in-network providers for Telehealth sessions but there is no guarantee of this and in the case that they do not, our regular fees would apply.
Insurance
In-Network
RTG is currently in network with Johns Hopkins EHP Health Insurance. Haley Sheridan Sweet, LCSW-C is also in network with Cigna/Evernorth. If you plan on using insurance, please understand that while RTG is an in-network provider with these insurance companies, each plan is different and your benefits are contracted between you and your insurance company. RTG is currently under a contract with your insurance company and does not have control over the benefits, deductibles, coverage, or fees associated with your plan.
Out-of-Network
For all other insurance companies, RTG is considered an out-of-network provider. This means if your insurance company offers out-of-network benefits, you should receive some reimbursement for the cost of services. Most insurance companies that provide out-of-network benefits cover between 50%-75% of the cost per session. Your provider will be happy to provide the necessary documentation for you to receive reimbursement for services. It is recommended that you contact your insurance provider and inquire about “out-of-network” benefits.

No Surprises Act — For patients not utilizing insurance billing with RTG
As of January 1, 2022, under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, healthcare providers and healthcare facilities are required to inform individuals of their right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much their medical care will cost. Under the law, healthcare providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
“Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate of Expected Charges” Under the No Surprises Act:
You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost
Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least one business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
