Does Providence Health Plan Cover Behavioral Health Treatment?
Many Providence Health Plan policies provide benefits for behavioral health treatment for substance use disorders and co-occurring mental health concerns. Whether your specific policy covers treatment at an out-of-network provider depends on its specific terms and conditions.
Your coverage may depend on factors such as:
