Behavioral health (mental health and substance use disorder)

We’re here for you.

At Tufts Health Plan, we provide a wide range of benefits to help you cope with behavioral health (BH) issues. These benefits include:

  • Outpatient mental health and substance use disorder treatment
  • Emergency and inpatient mental health and substance use disorder services
  • Applied behavioral analysis (ABA) services for autism spectrum disorders

We encourage you to take advantage of your benefits if you need help managing a BH condition, such as:

  • Alcohol and substance use disorder
  • Anxiety
  • Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD)
  • Autism spectrum disorders
  • Depression
  • Eating disorder
  • Obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD)


To learn more about these and other BH conditions, visit our online health guide.

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.
