**Better Mental Health Services, PLLC is contracted to work with the insurance carriers listed, however this does not guarantee we are in-network with your specific plan. Please contact your insurance carrier prior to your first scheduled appointment to confirm Better Mental Health Services, PLLC/Kellie Bement, ARNP are in-network for you. Out-of-network status may incur higher co-pay, out-of-pocket costs, and/or rejection/denial of claims.
