Do you take insurance?
Yes. We accept most major insurance plans, including TRICARE, Medicare, and a range of commercial providers. Our billing team will verify your benefits, review your coverage, and explain any out-of-pocket costs before your visit. For any questions about insurance or payment, please contact our team directly.

Does TRICARE cover TMS Therapy?
TRICARE does cover transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) for adults with major depressive disorder on an outpatient basis when medically necessary and pre-authorized. Accelerated protocols such as SAINT TMS (Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy) are not uniformly covered, so approval typically requires case-by-case review.
