How to Set Up Payments with your Ecclesiastical Leader (Bishop Pay)
Veritas Mental Health works with Bishops and other ecclesiastical leaders to ensure you have access to the therapy you need, especially when times are tough.
1. Speak with your Bishop, or other leader
Discuss your financial circumstances and your need for therapy. Together, determine whether your leader can help cover the cost of your sessions.
2. Schedule your appointment and complete your intake forms
Once your leader has agreed to help, schedule an appointment with Veritas. In your intake forms, select the payment option indicating that your bishop or ecclesiastical leader has agreed to pay for your therapy.
3. Sign the disclosure authorization
Veritas will send a disclosure authorization through your patient portal. Review and sign this form to give us permission to communicate with your leader about the therapy-related and billing matters covered by the authorization.
4. Have your leader complete the payment agreement
Your bishop or ecclesiastical leader must complete and sign the form at veritasmentalhealth.com/forms. This form confirms their agreement to pay and specifies how many sessions they have agreed to cover.
5. Keep track of your approved sessions
As you approach the end of the approved sessions, talk with your leader about whether additional assistance is available. Let Veritas know about any changes so we can coordinate payment for future appointments.
