Insurance Coverage

If you are using insurance, we   recommend you ask the following questions and note the name of the  customer service representative and the date of the discussion:

• Is there an annual deductible (amount you pay each year before insurance benefits kick in) and if so, how much is it?
• Do I need a referral from my primary care provider?
• Do I have copay or coinsurance for specialty doctor office visits?  Is so, how much is the fee or percentage?
• Is there a secondary "carve out" insurance or a "local  insurance provider" that manages mental health benefits?  If so, what  is the name of the company and is prior authorization required for  mental health care?

Your insurance can be billed if  Dr. Ronay is contracted with your insurance company.   The balance can be paid digitally or by credit card In an effort to streamline payments, we send monthly statements via email to all my patients who have a balance during that month.  You can use this statement to submit to HSA or for other accounting needs.  You can pay digitally with Zelle (https://www.zellepay.com/).  You can find the account through the email, katia.ronay@edmondspsychiatry.com or the phone number, 425 616 8408. The advantage of using Zelle is that you can avoid the 4% credit card fee. If you choose this payment option, we ask that you pay by the next business day once you receive the statement.  As a backup, we require that an active credit card is on record with Edmonds Psychiatry.    If you prefer not to use Zelle you can simply ignore the statement and we will charge the credit card you have on file. Please note there is a 4% processing fee.   

Dr. Ronay is contracted with the following insurance  carriers: Premera, Regence, and First Choice. We do not accept Medicare or Medicaid in this practice.
