MDwise

Many people think mental disorders are rare. In fact, they are common. A mental illness can affect thoughts and behavior. It can make it hard to cope with normal life routines.

What's Covered?

If you think you may have a mental or emotional problem, it is important to remember there is help. MDwise covers behavioral health services for our members. These services include:

• Mental health 
• Behavior problems
• Alcohol and drug abuse

MDwise members must pick a behavioral/mental health provider in the MDwise network. You do not need a referral from your Primary Medical Provider (PMP) to access these services. You can also ask your doctor for help. He or she can help you find one. Or you can call MDwise customer service.
