Seeing a Therapist Who Accepts Anthem Insurance
Anthem therapists, psychologists, and counselors are available for in-person appointments and video therapy sessions.
Therapy with an in-network Anthem counselor may cost no more than your copay, which typically ranges from $0 to $50. Some Anthem plans may require you to pay coinsurance instead of a copay, which means you’ll cover a certain percentage of the therapist’s fees out-of-pocket.
You may have to pay the therapist’s full rate if you haven’t met your annual deductible with Anthem, even if the therapist is an in-network provider with Anthem.
Depending on your Anthem insurance plan, there may be restrictions on the types of therapy services covered (e.g. couples counseling, grief counseling, psychological testing). Additionally, some plans may require you to get a referral from your primary care physician.
To check the specific costs and coverage details associated with your Anthem health insurance plan, give them a call at (800) 676-2583 or visit Anthem’s website to review your behavioral health benefits online.
Finding a Therapist, Counselor, or Psychologist in Tennessee
Finding a therapist in Tennessee may be easier in cities like Nashville. If you’re in a more rural area or if a therapist with a specific specialty isn't nearby, online therapy might be a suitable alternative.
In Tennessee, out-of-pocket costs for therapy typically range between $120 - $165 per session. For couples counseling and family therapy, the costs are likely to be in a similar range. It's essential to be aware that the first appointments with a therapist might be slightly longer and more expensive. Specialized services may also cost more than average.
There are currently over 11,000 counselors working in Tennessee with licenses, including Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSW), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFT), Licensed Professional Counselors (LPC), and Psychologists (Ph.D. and Psy.D.).
If you believe you might be eligible for free or reduced-cost services from the state, it's a good idea to explore local resources to see if you qualify for Medicaid or other state-sponsored programs.
