If you are looking for a psychiatrist in Murrieta, California, Temecula, or elsewhere in Riverside County, it can sometimes be difficult to find a psychiatrist who accepts insurance. Many psychiatrists, therapists, and other mental health providers have elected not to enroll with major health insurance carriers like Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield, Aetna, Cigna, or TRICARE, making it hard for patients looking for mental health care for depression, anxiety, PTSD, or similar mental health concerns.
Worse, sometimes a provider is in network with your insurance but is not accepting new patients at the moment. Even worse, once you find a mental health doctor who accepts your insurance, the wait times to get a new patient appointment for psychiatry can often be two to three months or longer.
Finding quality mental health care is not always easy. Lack of insurance coverage, long wait times for appointments, or inconvenient office locations or hours can discourage patients from receiving quality mental health care.
Fortunately, patients living in the Inland Empire area of Murrieta, Temecula, Corona, and Riverside County have access to excellent mental health treatment from a psychiatrist who accepts most commercial insurance and TRICARE and TriWest for military and veterans.

How to Use Medical Insurance Benefits for Mental Health

Most insurance plans also cover newer treatments for depression, such as TMS, as long as the patient meets eligibility requirements.
