Using Your Mental Health Benefits

As an HPSM member, you can get mental health treatment for conditions like depression, anxiety and substance use. They can be covered by either Behavioral Health and Recovery Services (BHRS) or HPSM.

If you have a child or adolescent 8 to 18 years old, call their PCP to schedule a mental health and wellness screening for  depression and anxiety

How to get care

If you are not yet receiving mental health and substance use disorder care, you can either call:

  • Your primary care provider (PCP)
  • The BHRS ACCESS Call Center at 1-800-686-0101 (TTY: 1-800-943-2833)

If you get voicemail, leave your name and phone number so you can get a call back.

Are you seeing a mental health provider or in a substance use treatment program now? Ask for help or let them know how you are doing.
