When someone is struggling with their mental health, finding the right support for them can be challenging. The new BCBSRI behavioral health kit can help.

It quickly explains available services for substance use disorders, mental health issues, eating disorders, and dementia. Each program has its own detailed card and – most importantly – includes a “how to get started” phone number.

Unlike traditional rack cards, these cards are not intended for your waiting area. Instead, you can share them with patients as needed. It could be the extra bit of encouragement someone needs to take their first step toward improved health and well-being.

We will begin sending out kits to providers in mid-April.
