Guide excerpt
Reviewed by TheraVoca's clinical team Yes — most health plans in Idaho cover therapy. Federal mental health parity law (the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act) generally requires plans that cover mental health to do so on terms comparable to medical care, and most Idaho plans, including those from Blue Cross of Idaho, Regence BlueShield of Idaho, PacificSource, SelectHealth, and Mountain Health CO OP, include outpatient therapy. With coverage, many Idahoans pay a per session copay of roughly $20 to $60. This guide explains how to check your own benefits, what affects what you pay, and what to do if therapy isn't fully covered. If the cost question has been the thing holding you back, that's fair and common. The good news is that coverage is more often there than people expect, and a few minutes of checking usually answers it. The short answer Most private and employer plans.
