More Mental Health Resources through Anthem!

Anthem provides these additional mental health resources for Anthem medical plan participants.

Autism Spectrum Disorder Program

We want to provide our associates who have children or dependents with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) the support they need to take care of their loved ones. Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) benefits, offered through Anthem, are designed for Bath & Body Works families with children or dependents who have ASD to help find heath care and applicable resources, provide coverage for care and lend support.

  • Coverage for Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA).
  • Coverage is based on the plan you are enrolled in and where services are rendered (i.e., Low Deductible Plan: Co-pay for office visit or deductible and coinsurance at an outpatient facility).
  • Pre-certification is required for coverage of ABA services.
    • If your family is currently using ABA services, please verify the provider’s network status as this may impact your share of treatment costs under your plan benefits.
    • In-network ABA providers can be found at anthem.com or by calling the Member Services number on the back of your Anthem ID card.
    • Your ABA provider will need to call the pre-certification number on the back of your member ID card to initiate the pre-certification process.

Anthem has a dedicated team of clinicians and board-certified behavioral therapists specializing in the unique challenges and needs of families impacted by ASD. The ASD Case Management program focuses on the entire family unit, creating a strong system of care through engagement of community resources, medical services, behavioral health services and other supports. The program goal is better outcomes, more effective use of benefits, and healthier kids and families.
