Behavioral Medicine-CH: FAQs
How do I know if the clinic takes my insurance?
You are welcome to call and ask Hurley Mental Health Associates support staff whether the clinic contracts with your insurance plan. Our support staff will also verify the insurance benefit and co-pay, and this information will be provided at your child's first visit.
What if I don’t have insurance? Can my child still come to the clinic?
Prospective patients may pay the private pay rate, or if that is not feasible, Genesee County Community Mental Health provides services on a sliding scale basis.
I think my child needs therapy but what if I don’t know who he/she should see?
The professional staff of Hurley Mental Health Associates represents a wide range of age and ethnic background so that a patient's needs and personal preferences can best be met. Based on the chief complaint that causes a person to call for an appointment and any preferences that he/she may have, our support staff can match a prospective patient with a therapist who is right for him/her.
How long will my child need to be in therapy?
The length of stay in therapy varies, depending on the severity of symptoms and the motivation of the patient to make changes, but the average length of stay is about 12 sessions.
Do you have staff members who can prescribe medication if my child needs it?
Hurley Mental Health Associates’ medical staff of psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and physician assistants can prescribe medications for patients who are in therapy at the clinic.
Is it possible for my child not to miss school for appointments?
The clinic is open Mondays-Thursdays 8am-9pm, Fridays 8am-5pm, and Saturdays 8am-4pm. There are many therapists who offer a variety of appointment times so that your child's schedule can be accommodated.
