There are numerous barriers to receiving mental health treatment, including limited access to care, social stigma, and feelings of guilt or shame. Financial responsibilities and the cost of treatment are the biggest obstacles for most. Mental health disorders require professional treatment, just like physical illnesses. At Harmony Hills, we help clients overcome the barrier of paying for mental health treatment by working closely with insurance companies like United Healthcare to help make mental health treatment more affordable. While we are out-of-network with United, contact an intake specialist to learn more about our care options.

Our intake specialists are well-versed in working with insurance companies, including out-of-network options like United Healthcare, to determine your level of coverage, make treatment more affordable, and allow you to focus on recovery. Contact an intake specialist today by calling 855.494.0357.

Understanding Mental Health Insurance Benefits and Coverage

Since the inception of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2008, all insurance companies have been required to provide coverage for behavioral and mental health care. Further, parity laws are federal and state regulations that remove restrictions on access to mental health care and obligate insurance companies to provide mental health coverage at the same levels as physical health coverage.

One of the most confusing parts of navigating insurance benefits is understanding the difference between in-network and out-of-network healthcare providers. Being in-network means that a particular mental health provider, such as Harmony Hills, has a contract with an insurance company to accept more coverage for its members, and the insurance company provides referrals to that healthcare provider. Ultimately, when an insurance company is in-network, individuals save money on treatment. While we are not currently in-network with United Healthcare, we can work with you to find a solution.

Paying for Mental Health Treatment with United Healthcare

Recognized as the nation’s #1 health insurance company, United Healthcare provides millions of Americans comprehensive mental health insurance coverage. United Healthcare partners with over one million physicians, care providers, and over 6,500 hospitals and care facilities to make accessing care simple and easy to navigate.

United Healthcare must provide behavioral and mental health coverage like all health insurance companies. When paying for mental health treatment with United Healthcare, the benefits you are eligible for will depend on where you live and your specific insurance plan. Your United Healthcare mental health treatment coverage may include:

• Intake assessment and diagnosis
• Medical exams during treatment
• Residential mental health treatment
• Outpatient mental health treatment
• Medication
• Individual therapy
• Group therapy
• Family therapy
• Dual diagnosis treatment

Health insurance plans cover all mental health diagnoses recognized in the DSM-5. They do not provide blanket coverage for every service or level of care. United is not in-network with Harmony Hills. Therefore, it is essential to understand what your United Healthcare policy covers. Harmony Hills intake specialists are here to provide a comprehensive overview of your out-of-network options with United Healthcare benefits and options for out-of-pocket expenses.
