If your health plan uses Optum for behavioral health benefits, you may have access to a wide range of mental health services, including therapy, psychiatry, medication management, and virtual care. At Bonmente, we work with many patients whose mental health benefits are administered through Optum. Whether you’re looking for support with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, or another mental health condition, understanding your Optum coverage can help you get started with confidence. What Is Optum? Optum is one of the largest healthcare and behavioral health organizations in the United States. Rather than functioning as a traditional insurance company in all cases, Optum often manages mental health and behavioral health benefits for a variety of employer-sponsored, individual, Medicare, and commercial health plans. This means you may have health insurance through a different carrier while receiving your mental health benefits through Optum’s provider network. Does Optum Cover Mental Health Services? In many cases, yes. Optum behavioral health plans often provide coverage for a broad range of mental health services designed to support both short-term challenges and ongoing mental health conditions. Depending on your specific plan, covered services may include: Individual therapy and counseling Psychiatric evaluations Medication management Virtual therapy appointments Telepsychiatry services Treatment for depression and anxiety ADHD evaluations and treatment PTSD treatment Family and couples therapy Intensive outpatient programs (IOP) Substance use disorder treatment Crisis intervention and inpatient behavioral health services Your exact benefits, copays, and provider options will depend on your health plan and network participation.

I’m very happy with the care I’ve received here.” Naomi “I have the good fortune of being in the care of Ms. Claudette Banda, NP at Bonmente.
