Behavioral health virtual visits

Reaching out may be hard —especially if you might not want anyone to know you’re hurting. From the privacy of home and the convenience of your mobile device* or computer, you can receive caring support from a licensed therapist.

Designed to help treat conditions like ADD/ADHD, anxiety, mental health disorders, addiction, and depression, virtual therapy offers confidential counseling and includes:

  • Private video sessions — in your home and at a time that’s convenient for you
  • Help with coping for adults, children, and teens — your licensed therapist may provide a diagnosis, treatment and medication if needed
  • Similar standard of care as in-person visits — you can see the same therapist with each appointment and establish an ongoing relationship

Once your coverage is effective, be sure to register on myuhc.com or call the number on your health plan ID card. 

In the moment support

Sometimes it just helps to have someone to talk to. With the Employee Assistance Program (EAP), you can reach an EAP coordinator 24/7 online or by phone for confidential conversation and referrals to expert care and services. EAP can help you and your family:

  • Address depression, stress, anxiety or substance use issues
  • Improve relationships at home or work
  • Work through emotional issues or grief
  • Get legal or financial assistance
  • Find support for child and elder care services

Keeping care on track

Preventive care - such as routine annual checkups and certain recommended age-appropriate screenings and immunizations - is covered by most UnitedHealthcare plans for little or no out-of-pocket when you see network providers. A preventive care visit may be a good time to help establish your relationship with your primary care provider. It can also help you manage your health and create a connection for future medical services.

Convenient 24/7 Virtual Visits

With 24/7 Virtual Visits, you can connect to a provider by phone or video* – on myuhc.com or the UnitedHealthcare® app. Providers can diagnose and treat a wide range of health conditions, including many of the same conditions as an emergency room (ER) or urgent care. Providers may even prescribe medication**, if needed.
