Payment and Insurance FAQ
Here you'll find answers to common questions regarding payment methods, insurance coverage, payment schedules, and potential additional fees for doula services.
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What payment methods do you accept? | Cash Apple Pay, Card, Venmo, PayPal and Affirm. |
| Which insurance providers do you work with, and what steps do clients need to take to determine their coverage for doula services? | Many insurances are in the process of covering doula services. I will look into your policy at consultation and see what's covered for you. I accept any insurance including WA Medicaid that will cover my services. |
| Can you describe your typical payment schedule (e.g., deposit, installments)? | My payment schedule is designed to be manageable and predictable. At time of hire and signing of contract we will go over your individual payment plan. All services must be paid in full by 35 weeks. |
| Are there any additional fees clients might encounter (e.g., travel expenses, extended support)? | At time of hire and contract signed we will go over expectations and expenses. Typically only extra expense is travel/gas if you are more than 30 miles away. But this can be adjusted. |
Sliding Scale
I believe everyone deserves access to quality doula support. Our sliding scale pricing is based on household income and family size, making our services more accessible while sustaining our practice.
The chart below shows example pricing tiers. During our initial conversation, we’ll work together to determine the rate that feels sustainable for your family’s financial situation. I use an honor system and trust you to select the tier that best reflects your circumstances.
Please note: This chart is provided as a general example. Each client’s sliding scale is determined individually based on their unique situation, including factors like household income, family size, medical expenses, student status, single-parent household, cost of living, and other financial considerations. I am committed to working with you to find a rate that makes doula care accessible.
If you have questions about sliding scale pricing or would like to discuss your specific situation, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
