In-Network Benefits
According to the Milliman Research Report (August 13, 2020), 23% of adults 18 or over have a mental health condition or substance use disorder. Consequently, Sanford is now able to serve a wider range of patients in both Michigan and other states with BCBS in-network benefits. And we are also able to reduce costs for those individuals, removing barriers to treatment.
We are now in-network with BCBS, and it will reduce costs for patients coming into treatment. This is the way healthcare should be done. It will make an impact on individuals’ lives and give emphasis to the medical model of treatment for mental health and substance use disorders. Let’s get people into well-needed treatment!
Alec Green, Managing Director, Sanford Behavioral Health
