Psychiatric Care That Accepts Mass General Brigham

Mass General Brigham Health Plan, formerly AllWays Health Partners, is the health plan of the Mass General Brigham system. Because we are in-network, you are typically responsible only for your plan's copay, coinsurance or remaining deductible, not the full cost of the visit.

 

Our clinical team includes seven board-certified psychiatric nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists, all licensed in Massachusetts. Learn more about our clinicians.

 

What Your Mass General Brigham Plan Typically Covers

  • Psychiatric evaluations: a comprehensive first appointment to review your history and symptoms and build a treatment plan.

  • Medication management: ongoing follow-up visits to monitor and adjust your medication.

  • Telehealth visits: most commercial plans cover video appointments the same way as in-person visits.

 

Your exact copay, deductible and any prior-authorization requirement depend on your specific plan, not just the insurer. We are happy to help verify your benefits before your first appointment.

 

How to Check Your Mass General Brigham Benefits

  1. Find your plan name and member ID on your insurance card.

  2. Call the member services or behavioral health number on the back of your card.

  3. Ask whether outpatient psychiatric or behavioral health services are covered, what your copay or coinsurance is for a specialist visit, and whether prior authorization is required.

  4. Or contact us with your insurance information and we will help check your coverage.
