Summary
This is a patient education and care guidance policy from Regence outlining behavioral health support resources for pediatric mental health. It highlights available virtual mental health care networks (Bend Health, Charlie Health, Equip, NOCD, Headway, Rula, Grow Therapy, Talkspace, Meru Health) and encourages parents to access free Care Management services through customer service. This is informational guidance rather than a billing or coverage change.
Action Required
No billing workflow changes required. This is a patient-facing informational policy. Front desk and customer service staff should be aware that patients may inquire about the listed behavioral health networks and Care Management services. No updates to billing software, prior authorization rules, or claim processing procedures are necessary. Providers should note the available resources when discussing pediatric mental health options with families.
