Do you take insurance?
No, we don't bill insurance. Foothills Psychiatry is out of network with insurance companies. If your plan has out-of-network benefits, you may be able to get part of the cost back. Your insurance company can tell you what your plan covers.
Do I need a referral?
No, you don't need a referral. You can call us yourself. If your doctor or therapist wants to refer you, that works too.
How soon can I be seen?
Usually within about a week. New patients are typically seen about a week after they first call.
Can I walk in?
No, please call first. Calling ahead lets us make sure someone is available to see you.
Do you offer telehealth?
Yes. Appointments are available by telehealth for patients in Idaho and Utah, or in person at our office in downtown Boise.
What states do you see patients in?
We see patients in Idaho and Utah, in person at our Boise office or by telehealth.
