Will My Insurance Company Cover Therapy? 

Counselling may be covered in full or in part by some foreign employee benefit plans. Balanced Lifestyles Counselling in Prague has a direct billing agreement with CIGNA INTERNATIONAL. For other foreign/commercial insurance companies that cover counselling, you would pay for the session and I will provide a receipt, that you can then submit to your company for reimbursement. However, coverage varies widely, so I recommend that you check with your provider  to see what services your policy includes. and what conditions apply.

Balanced Lifestyles Counselling Prague services are not covered by some Czech health insurance policies, like VZP, OZP, Slavia etc.  

Please check your coverage carefully by asking the following questions: 

  • Do I have counselling benefits?

  • What is my deductible and has it been met?

  • How many sessions per calendar year does my plan cover?

  • Do I need a referral from a psychiatrist or a GP to start counselling?

  • Does my plan cover for an out-of-network counselling ?

  • What is the coverage amount per counselling session?

  • Is approval required from my primary care physician or a psychiatrist?
