This is general information, not clinical advice, and it is no substitute for talking to a practitioner about your own situation.
Clinicians, case managers, pharmacists, and community organizations can refer a patient facing a cost barrier to psychiatric care, therapy, evaluation, or medication.
Consent comes first
Confirm the patient agrees to the referral and to us contacting them directly. Send only what is needed to assess the barrier and the service requested.
What helps a referral move quickly
The service being sought, the patient's location, the specific financial or coverage barrier, urgency, and the best way to reach them.
For medication assistance, include the prescriber and pharmacy so the prescription can be verified.
What you will hear back
We review the referral and contact the person using their preferred method. Information is shared with the referrer only when authorized and appropriate. We do not make clinical decisions or direct patient care.
Learn about help with therapy costs, mental health medication assistance, how to request support, or professional referral requirements.
Dates and external program details should be reconfirmed before relying on them.
