Beacon Health helps members schedule doctor visits

On March 1, 2016, Beacon Health Options, the UAW Trust’s behavioral health manager, began helping members schedule visits with a primary care physician. Visiting a primary care physician after discharge from a behavioral health facility plays a big role in keeping members healthy while ensuring their care is coordinated.

If a patient has been admitted to a behavioral health facility, your office may be contacted by a Beacon Health representative to set up an appointment for that patient following discharge. If you have any questions about this process, call Beacon Health at 1-877-228-3912.
