AMWELL REVIEW: 

First off, Amwell is pay per visit and insurance based. So any out of pocket costs such as copays et al will be determined by your insurance plan. Not all insurances are accepted, you'll need to check their list. 

They do offer an array of services such as: urgent care, pediatrics, therapy and second opinion but again the costs can add up quickly. Urgent care cost per consult: "Simply select a physician and connect for just $79 per visit " A therapy session can cost up to $129. "The cost of the virtual visit varies from $109 to $129 based on the experience and credentials of the therapist."   A second opinion is listed at $1850.00. "Virtual Second Opinions costs $1,850, and payment is due at the time of visit intake."

We couldn't locate a family or employer program.

They have an excellent customer service rating. 

Would be great for those who can afford it.

This is even more powerful than it might seem, for three reasons: First, you don’t necessarily have to be dirt poor to qualify for help:   Many hospitals give financial assistance to people with incomes at multiples of the federal poverty level.  Second, for-profits often have charity-care policies too — and  studies   show  they’re at least as generous as nonprofits, on the whole. Third, charity care isn’t limit

Have insurance? Good luck finding an in-network mental health professional. And be prepared to pay a bundle out-of-pocket. As a psychiatrist, Dr. Andrew Popper wanted to see lower- and middle-income patients who often face the greatest mental health challenges. He also thought taking insurance was part of a well-rounded practice. But years of hassles to get insurance companies to pay routine claims wore him down. For Popper, who practices in the Boston area and volunteers as an instructor at Harvard Medical School, the last straw came in 2022. Suddenly, an elderly patient he’d been seeing for more than a decade was getting her weekly claims turned down. The amount was just $30, but the money mattered to the patient. Popper said he made about a half-dozen calls to the insurance company – often more than 30 minutes each when the prompts and time on hold were factored in. Each time, the company’s representative agreed there’d been a mistake – but the claims were never paid.  Better health
