Question 2

How do I make payment?

Accepted Answer

Self-funding
For families who are self-funding our service an invoice is sent out via Xero.

Therapy:
We ask for payment on the day of therapy assessment / sessions.

Payment for therapy can be made via bank transfer, card or Apple/Google pay.

Neurodevelopmental & Cognitive Assessments:
We ask for payment for neurodevelopmental assessments of ASC and/or ADHD at the time of booking the appointments.

We ask families to make payment via bank transfer (BACS) wherever possible.  Card payment for assessments of ASC/ADHD is possible, but sadly, the company who handle card transactions (Stripe) charge us 1.9% for transactions and so we would need to add this charge to the invoice (i.e. 1.9% of the total cost).  We would inform you of the exact amount at the point of letting  us know you want to pay by card.
 
Health Insurance
We can claim costs back directly from Health Insurance Providers so long as they have authorised the sessions/assessments in advance.  Please note that charges via insurers may differ from the prices on our website as the Providers have different charges for different professionals. Please also note that some policies carry an excess charge.  More details can be found in our T&Cs.

Please contact us for more details.

Question 3

Are you registered with my Health Insurance Provider?

Accepted Answer

Many of our team are registered providers with the major Health Insurance Providers. You can see the providers on our Home page. If your Provider is not listed, please get in touch with us.
 
Please note that Health Insurers often require their members to obtain authorisation from them prior to commencing any assessments or treatment, and excess charges may be incurred depending upon your policy.

It is also important to note that for some Health Insurance Providers, their authorising sessions or an assessment does not guarantee that they will pay the charges in full, and you would be liable for the balance.  
 
Please check with your Health Insurance Provider for more details.

Question 4

Are you part of the 'NHS Right to Choose' Scheme?

Accepted Answer

No.  Unfortunately we are not part of the 'NHS Right to Choose' Scheme, and our assessments/therapy cannot be funded in this way at this time.

Question 5

How do I get a receipt or proof of payment?

Accepted Answer

Once the system has registered your payment (usually 1 - 2 working days), you will be able to follow the link to your invoice, where you will see that it has been marked as paid.

Any problems with obtaining a receipt, you can contact accounts@weareforwardthinking.co.uk
