Akron and telehealth statewide
Medicaid, Medicare and Insurance Accepted in Akron, OH
We work with ten major insurance plans, including Medicaid, Medicare and CareSource, for psychiatric care in Akron and by telehealth across Ohio.
Medicaid-Accepted Psychiatric Care
Monet Behavioral Health Center accepts Medicaid for psychiatric evaluation, medication management and psychotherapy, whether you come into the Akron office or meet by telehealth. Your Medicaid coverage details are confirmed as part of your free 15-minute consultation, so there are no surprises before your first paid visit.
Psychiatric care that takes Medicaid is not always easy to find in this area, and it can take several calls to reach a practice accepting new Medicaid patients. If that has been your experience, know that Medicaid coverage here works the same as any other plan on this page, with the same evaluation, the same clinician and the same follow-up schedule.
Medicare-Accepted Psychiatric Care
Medicare is accepted for the same range of services: evaluation, ongoing medication management, and individual psychotherapy. Medicare patients can use telehealth for follow-up visits after an initial in-person or online evaluation, which is often easier to manage than repeat trips to an office.
CareSource-Accepted Psychiatric Care
CareSource is also on our accepted plan list, and works the same way as our other in-network plans: bring your card to your free consultation and we will confirm the specifics before you book a paid appointment. CareSource members can use either the Akron office or telehealth for their visits.
Plans We Accept
In addition to Medicaid, Medicare and CareSource, we accept Aetna, Anthem, BlueCross and BlueShield, Cigna and Evernorth, Humana, Molina Healthcare and Optum.
Superbill for Out-of-Network Insurance
Carlita is an in-network provider and works with several major insurance companies. If your plan is not one of them, she can provide a superbill, which you submit to your insurance company yourself for potential reimbursement. Feel free to ask any questions about this during your free consultation.
A superbill is simply an itemized receipt with the codes your insurance company needs to process an out-of-network claim. Some plans reimburse a meaningful portion this way, others do not, and that depends entirely on your specific policy, not on anything we can predict in advance. Checking with your insurer directly about out-of-network mental health benefits before your first visit is the most reliable way to know what to expect.
What Your Plan Usually Covers
Most of the plans above cover a psychiatric evaluation as the first visit, followed by ongoing medication management and psychotherapy visits. Exactly what is covered, and any details about copays or referrals, depends on your specific plan and is confirmed before you book, never assumed.
Plans differ on things like how many therapy sessions are covered per year, whether a referral is required, and what your copay looks like for a specialist visit. Guessing at those details in general terms helps nobody, so we confirm the specifics of your exact plan directly. That is part of what the free 15-minute consultation is for.
Telehealth and Insurance
Every plan on this page is accepted for both in-person visits in Akron and telehealth psychiatry across Ohio. Coverage for a telehealth visit is generally the same as for an office visit, and we confirm the details for your specific plan ahead of your first appointment. This matters especially for patients calling from outside Summit County who are relying on telehealth to see a psychiatric provider at all.
