Behavioral Health


What is Behavioral Health Care?

Behavioral health care is care for both mental health and chemical dependency/addiction problems. MVP provides easy access to Behavioral Health Providers by assisting in linking our members with the appropriate provider for members depending on the member's problem and geographical location. Behavioral Health Providers include Psychiatrists, Psychologists, Social Workers, Addiction Specialists, and other licensed health professionals who specialize in Behavioral Health. Because they know you best, Primary Care Physicians can also provide some expert counseling, prescribe appropriate medications when needed and act as a resource to refer you to the most appropriate behavioral health provider.


If MVP manages your behavioral health benefit simply call the Mental Health/Substance Abuse phone number listed on the back of your MVP HealthCare ID card, to advise you or refer you to a behavioral health practitioner.
