Federal Employees Use GEHA Health Insurance for Better Mental Well-Being
GEHA plans offer comprehensive coverage, allowing our team to provide fully integrated services to meet each client’s needs.
For instance, imagine a federal employee has a teenager who abuses stimulants. They need effective addiction treatment services, but they also need care for skin abscesses from infected needle injection sites and dental work to repair damaged teeth.
With GEHA, integrating these complementary services is a streamlined process for all involved.
Government Employees Health Association Physical Healthcare Benefits
GEHA plans provide federal employees with a strong foundation by providing physical health benefits.
Members receive coverage for doctor visits, lab testing, hospitalization, chronic illness management, and urgent care. Coverage also offers preventive disease prevention at little to no out-of-pocket cost.

Mental Health Counseling and Benefits
Mental health care is another key component of GEHA. Coverage includes an extensive range of mental health services, treating your emotional well-being equally to physical health, as mandated in the Affordable Care Act (ACA). Many beneficial mental health benefits are available with GEHA network providers.
Levels of Care to Suit Individual Needs
The first step to getting treatment is determining the correct treatment environment, depending on the nature of the person’s mental wellness concerns. Many people will find outpatient services helpful; it allows them to seek help while balancing work and family commitments.
But others will find inpatient treatment to be the most effective; they need the highest level of care to ensure their safety or have tried recovery in the past with poor results.
Here’s an example:
A person with alcohol abuse and anxiety without thoughts of hurting anyone doesn’t need the same level of care as adults whose behaviors are destructive to themselves or others. GEHA usually approves the option that offers the client the most flexibility without compromising their safety.
Individual, Group, and Family Therapy Sessions
Mental health professionals usually offer counseling sessions in different settings to address different facets of their challenges.
- Individual therapy is where clients do a lot of internal work. It’s a safe, one-on-one setting, where clients focus on the root causes of their problems.
- Group therapy encourages peers to work together to learn new life skills, such as resolving conflicts or avoiding triggers.
- Family therapy sessions acknowledge that both the person struggling and mental health challenges impact their families. Together, they learn to rebuild trust and set boundaries.
Our mental health professionals custom-tailor each client’s program to ensure that we’re providing therapies that will help you make progress toward your mental health goals.
Treatment of Co-Occurring Mental Health Issues
GEHA health insurance recognizes that drug and alcohol addiction is a chronic disease, usually with an underlying cause. GEHA provides the opportunity for the therapist or psychologist to treat the symptoms of substance use disorder and the root condition at the same time.
This can include therapy, medication-assisted treatment, or medication management to get the desired outcomes.
GEHA Dental Plans
It may seem strange for a mental health facility to mention dental coverage. But the fact is that mental health issues can affect a person’s ability to take care of their hygiene needs, including brushing and flossing teeth.
This happens when people check out of life instead of learning how to cope with their problems. GEHA’s dental plan allows for cleaning, exams, x-rays, and tooth restoration services at little to no cost.
