. Insurance will not likely reimburse you for these fees.

Confidentiality
Everything that takes place in treatment is confidential and may not be released without your expressed written permission. There are two exceptions to this; if you or your child becomes a danger to self or others; and if you or your child is involved in child abuse. In these situations I am legally bound to break confidentiality in order to protect all involved.

About Accepted Insurance:
Dr. Gentile's practice is part of the Ohio State University insurance plan.  However, most of Dr. Gentile's practice is 'fee for service' which means clients pay for the appointments and seek reimbursement from their insurance company independently.
