If you feel that you are a danger to yourself or to others, please immediately discontinue this screening tool and call 911 or go to your nearest emergency room. If you are struggling with suicidal thoughts or feelings, you can contact the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline (which provides 24/7, free, confidential support) at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or the Pennsylvania Hospital Crisis Response Center at 215-829-5433. Because CTSA is a small outpatient specialty clinic and our staff is not on call, we are unable to provide emergency/crisis services. Information entered into this questionnaire is typically reviewed in the next 3-4 weeks.

After completing this questionnaire, our intake process starts with a phone screening. If it appears that the CTSA would be a good fit for you based on the phone screening, you would then be scheduled for or placed on our waitlist for a full evaluation, depending on availability at the time. Wait time for an evaluation can be approximately 8-12 weeks. If it appears that the CTSA would be a good fit for you based on the evaluation, you would then be placed on our waitlist for treatment. Wait time to begin treatment is typically 8-12 weeks after completing the evaluation. Please remember that the CTSA is open Mondays - Fridays, 9 am to 5 pm. All appointments for phone screenings, evaluations, and treatment are scheduled within those times. Most evaluations and treatment are currently being conducted via telehealth. Because of telehealth regulations, we can only see individuals who reside in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware at this time.

In the state of Pennsylvania, adolescents ages 14-18 can consent to outpatient mental health examination and treatment for him/herself without parental consent. Parents can also consent on behalf of the adolescent, without the adolescent's consent. Neither the parent nor the adolescent may override the other's consent. (Age of Consent to Mental Health Treatment in Pennsylvania Effects of Act No. 2004-147; Senate Bill No. 137, Session of 2004). Therefore, either a parent or adolescent (14+) can initiate the treatment process. Consent for evaluation/treatment from one or both parties (parents or teen) will be collected before the evaluation.

CTSA currently only accepts the following types of insurance:
Insurances offered through Penn Care PPO for University of Pennsylvania Health System employees only Insurances offered for Children's Hospital of Philadelphia employees only through Personal Choice and Keystone Health Plan East Insurances offered for University of Pennsylvania and UPHS employees only through Keystone Health Plan East All Aetna insurance plans (except Aetna Medicare) We are not participating providers for any other insurance plans (including Medicare or Medicaid).
Before completing an evaluation or beginning treatment at the CTSA, all prospective patients should verify coverage and out-of-pocket cost with your insurance carrier as copays and deductible amounts will affect the total cost.
To verify your out-of-pocket cost, call your insurance company and provide the following information:
· Tax ID: 232743545
· NPI: 1821486846
· Evaluation Procedural Code: 90791
· Follow-up Procedural Code: 90837
If you have any other insurance, you will need to pay out of pocket for services. Because the CTSA is an out-of-network provider for all other insurance plans, it is the patient's responsibility to get information from their insurance company about the possibility of reimbursement, the rate of reimbursement, and to submit claims on their own behalf for reimbursement. Please note that reimbursement is often only available through insurance companies for licensed psychologists, so if you decide to move forward with a postdoctoral fellow or student provider, all costs will be out of pocket

Please choose the type(s) of provider you are interested in. There are 3 types of therapists in our group, and the main differences are:
1) the level of certification of the provider (important mainly for insurance reimbursement)
2) the cost (per hour) of services.
3) the wait time for an appointment
All of our therapists have specialty training in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and experience in providing state-of-the-art treatment for OCD, PTSD, Trichotillomania, Anxiety and related disorders in children, adolescents, and adults. All would provide evidence-based treatment that is specific to the presenting concerns. Our Doctoral Student Clinicians have extensive training and are closely supervised by licensed psychologists. We are confident that all of our therapists would provide excellent treatment.

I acknowledge that the clinical hours of CTSA are 9:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday - Friday, and that treatment sessions take place within those hours.
I acknowledge that, following the evaluation, there is a waitlist to begin treatment. The length of the waitlist depends on: 1) your flexibility in terms of days/times for appointments, and 2) the provider or level of provider best suited to provide treatment, which is based on your preferences, therapist/client availability, and clinical judgment about best fit based during the evaluation. At present, our estimate of wait times is 8-12 weeks after the initial evaluation.

Are you interested in receiving treatment through CTSA's Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) for Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)? The IOP for OCD includes 4 hours per day of treatment, 5 days a week, for 6 weeks.
Treatment includes individual sessions with a licensed psychologist, exposure coaching with an individual therapist, and group therapy.
You must be able to commit 4 hours per day for the duration of the 6 week IOP program sometime between the hours of 9am and 5pm.
If you are accepted into the program, you must be physically located in PA, NJ, or DE for the duration of each telehealth visit.
Our program accepts Quest and Aetna insurances only. We are not participating providers for any Medicare or Medicaid insurances. All other participants must pay out-of-pocket.
The out-of-pocket cost for the IOP is $1,000 per day. The total cost ($1,000 per day x5 days per week for 6 weeks) is $30,000.
If you are paying out-of-pocket and plan to seek reimbursement from your insurance carrier, you will be required to seek a pre-authorization before starting the treatment program. If you click "Yes" that you are interested in the IOP for OCD, you will be contacted by one of our staff to further discuss the program, costs, and enrollment.
