How Does Florida GEHA Insurance Coverage Work for Mental Health Recovery?
With GEHA insurance, you can access trusted healthcare providers and treatment centers in Florida for therapy, inpatient care, and residential treatment.
Coverage depends on your specific plan, in-network providers, deductibles, and copays. Out-of-network providers may cost more, and some services require preauthorization.
GEHA helps make mental health treatment more accessible, so you can focus on your well-being instead of financial stress.
Does GEHA in Florida Cover Inpatient Mental Health Treatment?
Yes, GEHA health insurance covers inpatient mental health treatment in Florida. Because of the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA), health insurance plans must provide equal coverage for mental and physical health conditions.
Exact coverage varies based on plan type, level of care, and the treatment facility.
GEHA inpatient mental health coverage details include:
- Preauthorization: Some plans require approval before starting inpatient treatment.
- Length of stay: Coverage may range from 14 to 30 days per stay, depending on the insurance plan.
- In-network vs. out-of-network: In-network providers cost less, while out-of-network treatment centers may have higher out-of-pocket costs.
- Copay, deductibles, and coinsurance: Copays and deductibles vary by plan type (such as PPO, HDHP, or High Option plans).
- Coverage for dual diagnosis: Some GEHA plans cover substance use disorder and mental health conditions together.
To utilize these mental health services, members should consult GEHA’s network of providers. Especially since using in-network providers typically lowers out-of-pocket costs.
Members can find in-network behavioral health providers and treatment facilities through GEHA’s “Find Care” tool. To confirm your specific benefits, contact GEHA or Mark Behavioral Health for insurance verification.
