# Brightline is in network with Carelon

Brightline services are in network with Carelon. We will tell you exactly which clinicians are covered under your insurance. 

If we don’t have anyone credentialed yet under your plan, we’ll tell you who is available as an out-of-network option, and give you information about pricing, HSA/FSA funds, and superbills.

Call the number on the back of your insurance card to see what mental health services are covered under your plan, whether you’ve met your deductible, and if you are responsible for a copay or a coinsurance percentage of services.

## Questions to ask your insurance provider

- Is Brightline in network with my plan?
- Is [clinician name] in network with my plan?
- Is diagnosis code [code here] covered as part of my plan?
- Do I have a deductible and how much do I need to pay until it's met?
- Am I responsible for a copay (a fixed rate, e.g. $40) or coinsurance (a percentage of the cost of a service, e.g. 10% of therapy)?

## Helpful information on timing

- After your child’s first appointment, we’ll notify you by email to let you know when your insurance claim has been processed, what the charge amount to your credit card on file will be (if any), and the timing of the payment (usually five business days).
- When insurance processes the claim on their end — which may take up to 45–60 days — whatever isn’t covered is charged to the credit card on file.
- If you are paying out of pocket, your credit card will be charged once your child’s clinician puts their after-visit notes into our system. This lets us know the appointment has taken place and usually happens within about three days.
- If you are paying out of pocket and need a superbill, we can provide one at any time — either by request or on a regular monthly basis.
