I understand that MeRT is a self-pay / out of pocket service and, in many cases, insurance does not cover this procedure.

I am able to stay in the Dallas-Fort Worth area for the required 2-week treatment intervals.

I am aware that use of MeRT for Autism, Depression, PTSD, TBI and other conditions is considered "off-label."

I have read and acknowledge the Absolute and Relative Contraindications listed above.
