How coverage usually works
Yes. Cogniscribe is in network with UnitedHealthcare/Optum and UMR. Network status and testing benefits vary by plan (UMR administers many employer plans), so we verify your benefits and any authorization before scheduling.
Psychological testing is often covered when it is medically necessary, and every plan is a little different. Before your evaluation is scheduled, our team checks your benefits and whether any authorization or referral is needed, so you know what to expect.
