What if I am currently receiving mental health/behavioral health benefits from a provider and I want to continue with that provider after January 1, 2010?
If your provider is in the Yale Health Plan/Magellan network you will need to call Magellan at 800-327-9240, TDD 800-456-4006 to get prior authorization. If your provider is not in the Yale Health Plan/Magellan network you have two options. You can call Magellan and they will assist you with selecting a network provider and prior authorization. Or you may choose to utilize an extension of the old benefit and stay with your current provider through June 30, 2010. With the transition plan the $100 annual deductible, $60/visit reimbursement up to an annual maximum of 30 visits and a lifetime maximum of 150 visits will apply. Complete details of the transition plan can be found here www.yale.edu/yhp/news/transition_plan.
