Annual Mental Health Wellness Exams - all cost share is waived (PCP/Plan Approved and Self-Referred benefits) for at least one exam in each calendar year when furnished by a covered provider, including mental health providers. A mental health wellness exam is a screening or assessment that seeks to identify any behavioral or mental health needs and appropriate resources for treatment. The exam may include: observation, a behavioral health screening, education and consultation on healthy lifestyle changes, referrals to ongoing treatment, mental health services and other necessary supports, and discussion of potential options for medication; and age-appropriate screenings or observations to understand a covered member's mental health history, personal history, and mental or cognitive state and, when appropriate, relevant adult input through screenings, interviews, and questions.
