BCBSTX members are able to access care two to three times faster on average through mental health provider database Headway, according to a June 7 news release. Headway reported that 76 percent of BCBSTX members see an improvement in a clinical assessment in the first 30 days.
BCBSTX has also taken other steps to address mental health needs in Texas, including giving $820,000 to 21 nonprofits across the state to tackle gaps in behavioral health care and launching BCBSTX’s 13th outdoor fitness court, the release said.
