Looking for a BH care provider?
You don’t need a referral from your primary care provider (PCP) to see a BH provider. But your PCP may be able to help you find a professional in your area.
If you need help, you can call our member services team at 888-257-1985 (TTY: 711). We are available Monday to Friday, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
