Cancellation Policy: At Bright Health Co., we’re all about helping you feel your brightest — and making sure everyone gets a chance to do the same. We know life can be unpredictable, so if you need to cancel or reschedule, we kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice. Changes made within 24 hours of your appointment, or missed visits, will incur a fee equal to the cost of your reserved treatment, as that time could have gone to another patient ready for their feel-good moment.
