What it is
This is a diagnostic evaluation by a mental health clinician, usually the first visit before therapy starts. It covers history, current symptoms, a mental status exam and a treatment plan, without medical services such as prescribing.
What the price covers
The price covers the evaluation visit. Psychological testing, follow-up therapy sessions and any facility fee at a hospital-based clinic are billed separately.
Why prices differ
Prices differ by clinician type and setting, and hospital-affiliated clinics may add facility fees that private practices do not.
What to ask
Ask whether the self-pay price for CPT 90791 includes any facility fee and whether a sliding scale is available.
