What Aetna Better Health covers at Mugen
Under Aetna Better Health, care with us typically includes a thorough psychiatric evaluation, ongoing medication management, and follow-up visits, in person at our Oak Brook office in DuPage County or by secure video anywhere in Illinois, including Chicago and Cook County. Our team verifies your benefits by phone before your first visit.
Psychiatric evaluation
A thorough first visit to understand your history, what you're experiencing now, and your goals, then a plan built together.

We treat ADHD, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, PTSD, and OCD under your Aetna Better Health plan. Care is provided by our board-certified psychiatrists and psychiatric nurse practitioners, both in network under this plan.
What Aetna Better Health members should know
Aetna Better Health of Illinois is Aetna’s Medicaid plan for HealthChoice Illinois. It comes from the same company as the Aetna coverage many people carry through work (Aetna is part of CVS Health), but it is a distinct plan with distinct rules, and this page answers for the Medicaid card specifically.
The member handbook is direct on both questions that matter most. On cost: Aetna Better Health of Illinois does not have cost sharing for HealthChoice members, apart from the spend-down arrangements some members maintain for eligibility. On access: no referral is needed for behavioral health or substance use treatment, which means you may contact us directly.
Psychiatric care at Mugen, including evaluation, medication management, and follow-up visits, is covered in person in Oak Brook or by video anywhere in Illinois. As with every plan we accept, our office verifies your coverage before your first visit, and Aetna Better Health member services can review the details of your own benefits at 1-866-329-4701 or aetnabetterhealth.com/illinois-medicaid.html.
Aetna through an employer? Aetna links to the commercial page. Also Illinois Medicaid: County Care, Molina Healthcare, Blue Cross Community, and How Medicaid works at Mugen.
Two resources answer what comes up most on this plan: does Illinois Medicaid cover psychiatrist visits, and what a visit costs. No referral is needed for behavioral health here, and we go plan by plan on the rest.
