Many Lyra plans cover 100% of the cost of treatment. And since there are many families who don't know they have the Lyra Healthcare benefit through their employer, we encourage all families to contact the employers of all household members to find out if this EAP benefit is available.
Each family member in the household usually receives their own allotment of sessions that resets yearly. Sessions alloted to the child or any of their caregivers can be used but not mixed. Families must contact Lyra directly to verify that there are at least 14 sessions available (factoring in the yearly reset of sessions) and whether they have a copay.

Finally, if less than 14 sessions are available (factoring in any yearly reset of sessions in the next 3-4 months), families may be able to continue under various Lyra extension plans or continue with their regular health insurance. Families can also apply for our sliding scale or Reduced Fee Options as low as $10 per session if needed to cover remaining sessions (see below).

We offer 6 insurance and payment options including Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs). These accounts are provided through employers who allow their employees to select a certain amount of money they want to use for healthcare expenses, like for therapy, that the employees can use immediately. Then that amount is deducted in equal increments from future paychecks in the coming year. Families must verify the details of their plan with their employers.
Families can apply for one of our Reduced Fee Options as low as $10 per session if paying the full rate upfront is not an option or the over all out-of-pocket costs are out of reach.

Many families consider PCIT to be an investment that can pay off for their child's lifetime.

In-network benefits may be used if a separate application to the insurance company is approved for a “Single Case Agreement” at the family's qualifying rate on a reimbursement basis. This option may take 6-8 weeks for approval and may require completing an initial assessment to demonstrate medical necessity. Families can begin treatment before approval and then request out-of-network reimbursement if the single case agreement is denied. Schedule a free consultation to learn more about this process.
Also, we can submit out-of-network claims to the insurance company. Using out-of-network benefits requires families to pay upfront for services and be reimbursed in accordance with their plan. Some families are reimbursed 100%. After deductible most families are reimbursed 2/3 of customary charges. Schedule a free consultation to find out how much you would be reimbursed out-of-network.
