About United Healthcare

United Healthcare is one of the largest health insurance providers in the United States, serving millions of members nationwide. 

As a leading managed care organization, United Healthcare offers a wide range of health plans including individual, family, employer-sponsored, and Medicare plans.

United Healthcare’s mental health and substance abuse benefits are administered through United Behavioral Health (UBH), which specializes in behavioral health services and maintains extensive networks of mental health professionals and treatment facilities. This partnership ensures that members have access to comprehensive mental health care when they need it most.

Does United Healthcare Cover Mental Health Treatment?

Yes, United Healthcare provides comprehensive mental health coverage as required by federal mental health parity laws. 

Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, insurance plans must provide mental health and substance abuse benefits that are comparable to medical and surgical benefits. This means that United Healthcare covers various levels of mental health treatment, from outpatient therapy sessions to intensive residential programs.

Your specific coverage will depend on your individual plan details, including your deductible, copayments, coinsurance, and out-of-pocket maximums. United Healthcare typically covers medically necessary mental health services when provided by in-network providers, which can significantly reduce your out-of-pocket costs.

Does United Behavioral Health Cover Therapy?

United Behavioral Health, United Healthcare’s behavioral health division, does cover therapy services. 

This includes individual therapy, group therapy, family therapy, and specialized therapeutic interventions. Coverage extends to various types of therapy including cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), trauma-focused therapy, and other evidence-based treatment modalities.

The number of therapy sessions covered may vary based on your specific plan, but United Behavioral Health typically provides generous coverage for outpatient therapy services. Many plans cover weekly therapy sessions with minimal copayments when you see an in-network provider.

Our Georgia Mental Health Programs That Accept United Healthcare

At Peachtree Wellness Solutions, we proudly accept United Healthcare insurance across our comprehensive range of mental health programs. Our Georgia-based facility offers multiple levels of care designed to meet you where you are in your mental health journey. 

Each program is staffed by licensed mental health professionals who work collaboratively with United Healthcare to ensure you receive the care you need.

Residential Mental Health Treatment

Our residential program provides 24/7 comprehensive mental health care in a supportive, therapeutic environment. This intensive level of care is ideal for individuals experiencing severe mental health symptoms that require constant supervision and support. Our residential program includes individual therapy, group therapy, psychiatric care, medication management, and holistic wellness activities. United Healthcare typically covers residential treatment when it’s deemed medically necessary by your healthcare provider.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

Our Partial Hospitalization Program offers intensive treatment during daytime hours while allowing you to return home in the evenings. This program is perfect for individuals who need more support than traditional outpatient therapy but don’t require 24-hour supervision. PHP includes daily group therapy, individual counseling sessions, psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and therapeutic activities.

Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)

Our Intensive Outpatient Program provides flexible treatment options that work around your schedule. IOP typically involves several therapy sessions per week, including individual and group therapy, while allowing you to maintain your work, school, or family responsibilities.

How Much Does Treatment Cost With United Healthcare?

  • The cost of mental health treatment with United Healthcare depends on several factors including your specific plan, deductible, and copayments.

    For higher levels of care like residential treatment or PHP, United Healthcare may require prior authorization to ensure medical necessity. Our admissions team works directly with United Healthcare to verify your benefits and obtain any necessary authorizations before you begin treatment.
