About First Health and Cofinity
First Health is a national preferred provider organization (PPO) network that is part of Aetna, providing members with access to a broad network of health care providers across the United States, including mental health and behavioral health professionals. Cofinity is a regional PPO network serving members primarily in the Midwest, also offering access to a wide range of health care providers including mental health practitioners. Both First Health and Cofinity function as network solutions — meaning that your actual health insurance benefits are provided through your specific health plan, which accesses the First Health or Cofinity network to connect you with in-network providers.
How First Health and Cofinity Networks Work
Because First Health and Cofinity are networks rather than insurance carriers themselves, the specific mental health benefits available to you will depend on your underlying health insurance plan. Generally speaking, plans that access the First Health or Cofinity network provide coverage for outpatient mental health counseling and therapy, psychiatric evaluations and medication management, and other medically necessary behavioral health services, subject to your plan’s deductible, copayments, and other cost-sharing terms. In-network providers — those who participate in the First Health or Cofinity network — typically result in lower out-of-pocket costs for members compared to out-of-network providers.
Verifying Your Network Status and Benefits
Our admissions team at Guardian Recovery – Princeton Psychiatry & Counseling will work directly with your insurance plan to verify whether we participate in the First Health or Cofinity network applicable to your coverage, confirm the specific mental health benefits available to you, clarify any cost-sharing requirements, and address any prior authorization requirements. We handle this verification process on your behalf so that you can focus on taking the first step toward getting the help you need.
