    Membership Benefits

    Contracting with Insurance companies through SWBHIPA:

    1. Members of SWBHIPA will have the benefit of our paid consultant, or “messenger”, who guides our membership organization through the contracting process.
    2. The contracts are executed directly with SWBHIPA. As a member, if you join a SWBHIPA contract, you will be contracted under SWBHIPA’s contract terms.
    3. No longer do you have to have individual contracts you don’t understand.  Our consultant will help you understand the contract language and terms.
    4. As a member of SWBHIPA, you will decide which SWBHIPA contracts are right for you.
    5. SWBHIPA can panel you with most insurance companies with either abbreviated or no additional paperwork.
    6. Reimbursement terms will be clearly defined.
    7. SWBHIPA works on educating our members on contracting terms and how they impact your practice.

    Advocacy and Education:

    1. We will keep you informed and offer you discounts on CE events offered by our members and colleagues. We support you in keeping up with changing healthcare laws and information needed to have a successful behavioral health practice.
    2. Education on reimbursement methodologies.
    3. We are involved in promoting the issues that behavioral health providers face in our state. We are advocating for behavioral health providers, so that they can provide the necessary services to help our fellow New Mexicans.

    Communication:

    1. Consistent and clear communication between insurance companies and providers.  If our members have problems with one of the contracted insurance companies, our messenger will act as intermediary for us.
    2. SWBHIPA offers many opportunities for networking and building a strong community of quality mental health providers.
    3. SWBHIPA can assist with referrals to our practitioners.
