Get TeleMental Health Services If Desired

Obtain counseling from the comfort of your home or office.

We are thankful that all of the insurance networks, for which we are preferred providers, have communicated with us that they are covering TeleMental Health Services just like they do face to face services in our office. The Department of Health and Human Services for the United States has provided the guidance and authority for them to make this accommodation and for us to provide you these services ever since the Pandemic began and continues through 2021.

Feel free to call us to ask if your insurance company is on the list, but as of today these are the companies that allow us to see you online rather than skipping or rescheduling your appointment:

Security Health Plan (Commercial and Medicaid), Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, United Healthcare (including UMR and UHSS), Badgercare (Title IX), WEA Trust, Network Health Plan (Commercial and Medicaid), and Wisconsin Physicians Service (WPS). Many others are continuing to do so as well, so keep checking if your insurance is not listed.

You are welcome to come to our office as usual for your appointment, or you can request to have a TeleMental Health session, if you would like to do so. Please let us know your preference and we will set up either an on-site or a virtual session for you.

Our staff at APS wanted to let you know that we are all available to provide you timely and secure help even from the comfort of your own home.  We already have the systems in place to do this with our email system and communication system.

If you go to our scheduling page, you will be able to choose “TeleMental Health Services” to see your provider.  Once that appointment is made, we can help determine if you will need to pay out of pocket due to no insurance, or if we can go ahead and bill your insurance as usual.

All of our paperwork can be completed via email with digital signatures, if applicable, for any new clients who live in Wisconsin. Otherwise, we hope that this helps bring peace of mind that you can still see your current counselor without the increased stress or worry of coming to our office. We hope this information is helpful to you, but if you have any additional questions, please contact us.

Sincerely,

The APS Staff
