Contact your health insurance company to learn about your mental health treatment coverage
Contact your health insurance company to learn about your mental health treatment coverage, requesting the following information and providing it as a discussion thread. Do not rely on co-workers to answer these questions and call the insurer yourself rather than rely on what the website says. You may face challenges in accessing the needed information, and you are encouraged to begin this assignment early in the week. In addition, we have found that students are often tempted to disclose that this is a class assignment, rather than experience the anxiety that surfaces during this process. This assignment is designed to provide students with an opportunity to understand this process from the perspective of our clients. PLEASE do not feel the need to report on the type of insurance you have or who the provider is. If this assignment makes you uncomfortable, Please contact me prior to the due date and I will give you an alternative assignment.
