OBHA is here to help you
The Office of the Behavioral Health Advocate (OBHA) helps Connecticut residents access behavioral health care. When individuals or families face barriers to getting the right care at the right time close to their homes. To make sure those with insurance have access to adequate in-network providers, OBHA assists any licensed behavioral health professionals who are struggling to receive reimbursement from insurance companies.
Our office hopes to amplify the voices of both consumers and providers in ways that will lead to improvements to our state-wide behavioral health continuum of care. By tracking these issues, OBHA identifies patterns and recommends policy changes to lawmakers. Each year, OBHA reports to the Connecticut General Assembly about systemic problems and what changes are needed to improve access to mental health care across the state.
