Online Therapy, Counseling, and Coping Strategies for Chronic Illness

Coping with Chronic Illness 

You’re sick of being sick. You are scared of what the future may hold. Having a chronic or serious illness can feel like a lonely place to be. Not many people in your life understand what you are going through physically, mentally, and emotionally. Perhaps you are dealing with other complications with relationships in your life, anxiety, and feelings of depression on top of everything else.

With over 11 years of healthcare experience, Stephanie is well-versed in the challenges that many people who are chronically or seriously ill face. Her work in Palliative Care and Hospice has prepared her to help those dealing with these illnesses. Stephanie understands that everyone goes through these diseases differently and that they often affect someone more than physically. Stephanie offers a safe space for you to discuss your challenges, fears, and goals. Stephanie’s goal is to help you improve your quality of life and become your partner through your healthcare journey.

Under the No Surprises Act

Notice to clients and prospective clients:

Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, health care providers and healthcare facilities are required to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program, or not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage both orally and in writing of their ability, upon request or at the time of scheduling health care items and services, to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” of expected charges.

This form may be used by the health care providers to inform individuals who are not enrolled in a plan or coverage or a Federal health care program (uninsured individuals), or individuals who are enrolled but not seeking to file a claim with their plan or coverage (self-pay individuals) of their right to a “Good Faith Estimate” to help them estimate the expected charges they may be billed for receiving certain health care items and services. Information regarding the availability of a “Good Faith Estimate” must be prominently displayed on the convening provider’s and convening facility’s website and in the office and on-site where scheduling or questions about the cost of health care occur.

To use this model notice, the provider or facility must fill in the blanks with the appropriate information. HHS considers the use of the model notice to be good faith compliance with the good faith estimate requirements to inform an individual of their rights to receive such a notice. Use of this model notice is not required and is provided as a means of facilitating compliance with the applicable notice requirements. However, some form of notice, including the provision of certain required information, is necessary to begin the patient-provider dispute resolution process.

NOTE: The information provided in these instructions is intended only to be a general informal summary of technical legal standards. It is not intended to take the place of the statutes, regulations, or formal policy guidance upon which it is based. Readers should refer to the applicable statutes, regulations, and other interpretive materials for complete and current information. Health care providers and facilities should not include these instructions with the documents given to patients.

As a client of Total Wellness Partners, while you will have been given a verbal Good Faith Estimate of the cost of services, you may request one in writing at any time. To do so, please notify Total Wellness Partners in writing of this request and one will be provided to you. Only clients may make this request.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, or how to dispute a bill, see your Estimate or visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises
