Good Faith Estimate
Know What to Expect - No Surprises, Just Support
At Parade Wellness, transparency is a core value. We want you to feel informed and empowered—not confused—when it comes to the cost of your care. That’s why we provide a Good Faith Estimate (GFE), as part of our commitment to clear communication and client advocacy.
What Is a Good Faith Estimate?
A Good Faith Estimate outlines the expected costs of services you may receive at Parade Wellness. It’s part of the federal No Surprises Act, which helps ensure that clients who pay privately for care understand costs upfront, before services begin.
Who Receives a GFE?
Parade Wellness is a private pay practice and does not accept insurance. All clients paying out-of-pocket (self-pay) will receive a Good Faith Estimate. You’ll receive a written estimate before services begin, and you can request one at any time - even if you’re just considering services.
What Does the Estimate Include?
Your Good Faith Estimate will outline:
-
The type(s) of service(s) you may receive
-
The expected frequency or number of sessions
-
The estimated total cost of services over a 12-month period
-
Your provider's hourly or session rate
Please note: This is an estimate, not a bill. Your actual costs may vary based on your personal needs, goals, frequency of sessions, or any changes to your plan. If significant changes occur, your estimate will be updated accordingly.
When Will I Receive My Estimate?
-
Before your first session as a self-pay client
-
Within 1–3 business days of requesting one
-
Anytime your plan or service frequency changes
