<p>[QUOTE="Rushie, post: 3148892, member: 1285"]I think what people run into is getting a diagnosis of “depression” for things like this. Maybe for the purpose of insurance. What exact code does the practitioner put in your record? I’m not sure we always know so I think it’s a good idea to talk about this up front with the counselor. Tell them it’s important that you aren’t upcoded, you’ll pay out of pocket if necessary. Most healthcare practitioners aren’t aware of certification issues and the importance of the diagnostic code, but believe all patients care about is paying as little as possible. At least that’s my impression.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
