The short answer

Know your plan
What First Choice Health members should know
- Network, not insurer: your employer’s plan decides your deductible, copays, and any referral rules. The member number on your ID card is the fastest way to check behavioral health coverage.
- Employer-funded plans: many plans that use the First Choice Health network are self-funded by employers. Those plans follow federal rules enforced by the U.S. Department of Labor rather than the Washington Insurance Commissioner.
- Video visits: most employer plans cover telehealth for mental health. We confirm yours before your visit.
