Common questions
Do you take Maryland Medicaid?
Yes, for therapy, medication management and ABA therapy. Mental health care for Medicaid members is managed by Carelon Behavioral Health, and our office requests any approval that is needed.
Do I need a referral?
Not for therapy or medication management. ABA therapy does need a referral from a qualified health care professional.
Who prescribes medication?
Licensed nurse practitioners, by video or phone, after a psychiatric evaluation of about 60 minutes.
Do I have to live near you?
No. Therapy and medication management happen by video or phone anywhere in Maryland. You need to be in Maryland during each visit. ABA sessions happen in your home, and we confirm staffing for your area when you call.
What ages do you see?
Therapy and medication management start at age 6, and we see teens and adults too. ABA therapy is for children and young adults under 21.
Is the first appointment free?
No. The first appointment is an intake visit and it is billed like other visits. We check your coverage and explain any costs before you schedule.
Do you offer crisis care?
No. Hearthway is not an emergency service. In a crisis, call or text 988. In an emergency, call 911.
