Aetna and EMDR in Houston
Aetna covers EMDR for PTSD, anxiety, depression, adjustment disorders and other trauma-related conditions, and a Houston therapist search usually turns up more cash-only EMDR practices than in-network ones.
- Typical copay
- In-network mental health visits with Aetna usually cost $20-50 per session, depending on your plan. Out-of-network EMDR may be covered at 50-80% after your deductible. Federal parity law says mental health benefits can't be more restrictive than comparable medical benefits. Check your plan to see how your deductible applies.
- Prior authorization
- Aetna usually doesn't require prior authorization for your first outpatient EMDR sessions. Some plans ask for authorization after a set number of sessions (often 20-30). Intensive outpatient programs or extended sessions may need approval in advance.
Frequently asked questions
- Does Aetna cover longer EMDR sessions?
- Most of the time. Insurers bill a standard hour-long therapy visit with no upper time limit, so 60 to 90 minute EMDR sessions are usually covered. We confirm it when we check your benefits.
- Is online EMDR covered by Aetna in Houston?
- Most Aetna plans cover telehealth mental health care, EMDR included, at the same rate as an office visit. All of Loma's sessions are by video.
