December 28, 2015 -

Are you a mental health provider?

Do you know about all of the mental health services available for your patients through Magellan Healthcare*?

CareFirst collaborates with Magellan to offer mental health services to your patients to help support them on the path to better health. These programs also help to support your behavioral health treatment recommendations.

• For patients who would benefit from real-time, two way conversations, there's Magellan Telehealth.
• For a patient who needs additional treatment options due to an alcohol or drug addiction, there's Medication-Assisted Therapy.
• For patients who have difficulty scheduling and maintaining appointments, talk to them about My Care Link Up.

If your patient needs additional details or would like to talk to a mental health representative from Magellan, refer them to the Mental Health/Substance Abuse phone number listed on the back of their member ID card.
