Therapists accepting Sana Benefits in New York

Seeing a Therapist Who Accepts Sana Benefits Insurance

Sana Benefits therapists, psychologists, and counselors are available for in-person appointments and video therapy sessions. 

Therapy with an in-network Sana Benefits counselor may cost you nothing or no more than your copay, which typically ranges from $0 to $50. Some Sana Benefits plans may require you to pay coinsurance instead of a copay, which means you’ll cover a certain percentage of the therapist’s fees out-of-pocket. 

You may have to pay the therapist’s full rate if you haven’t met your annual deductible with Sana Benefits, even if the therapist is an in-network provider with Sana Benefits.

Depending on your Sana Benefits insurance plan, there may be restrictions on the types of therapy services covered (e.g. couples counseling, grief counseling, psychological testing). Additionally, some plans may require you to get a referral from your primary care physician.
 
To check the specific costs and coverage details associated with your Sana Benefits insurance plan, give them a call at (833) 726-2123 or visit Sana Benefit’s website to review your behavioral health benefits online.
