Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina Does NOT Require a Referral for Counseling

Overall wellness includes psychological, emotional and behavioral health care. In the past, insurance providers have had a greater focus on physical health, thankfully this is changing. The Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act enacted in 2008 helped to fuel this change, encouraging insurers to cover services for mental and behavioral health to include substance use disorders.

Obtaining a referral for services has been a deterrent for some when it comes to seeking counseling. Not all insurances require this, for instance, Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (Blue Cross NC) does not require one.

What Are My Benefits?
