Title: Insurance question
Post by: Mysticfever on March 11, 2016, 12:42:04 PM
So I'm looking into seeing a therapist, doing the research to find one best suited for both my wife and i, my question is. Will insurance help any? If so typically with what?

It simply depends on your individual policy and what it covers.  For a reliable answer you need to call your insurance company

Aetna POS II pays 70% of my gender therapist cost.

Depends on the insurance and the policy you have. Mine covered therapy down to copay for those in network and a deductable came into play when someone wasn't. Hormones were whatever the copay was depending on what tier each fell into. Hugs
