Fees & Payment Options
The rates and fees at Chapin & Russell Associates vary, based on the type of service provided, the degree and the professional licensure of the counselor who will be providing the service, and the available contractual discounts that are applied based on the health insurance network used. Information regarding the specific fees for the services you will be receiving can be obtained by contacting our office and speaking with one of our qualified support staff. Clients who do not have insurance or who choose not to use insurance will be provided an estimate of the costs of medical items and counseling services provided by Chapin & Russell Associates.

Payment for services is expected at the time services are rendered and can be paid by cash, check or credit card. If insurance is being used then copays and deductibles are to be paid at the time. Chapin & Russell Associates have counselors who are approved providers for most health insurers in Central Illinois including Caterpillar, Medicare and military insurers.
At the time of your call, our support staff will obtain your insurance information, offer you an appointment with a counselor who is approved under your plan and matches your needs. They will contact your insurance carrier to confirm benefits and plan information and attempt to obtain preauthorization for the services. This is a courtesy and is not a guarantee of payment by your carrier and both preauthorization and payment is ultimately the responsibility of the client.
