Psychiatrists and Therapists Accepting Oxford Health Plans
If your health insurance is through Oxford Health Plans, you can use it for psychiatric and therapy care at Good Health Psychiatric Services. Good Health is in-network with all Oxford group and individual plans, so your visits are billed at contracted rates and you pay only your plan’s share. Your Oxford mental health coverage applies to psychiatric evaluations, medication management, individual therapy, and TMS and Spravato for depression that has not responded to medication.
Oxford is a UnitedHealthcare company that serves employers and individuals in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut, and Good Health sees patients in all three states. Our board-certified psychiatrists, psychiatric nurse practitioners, and licensed therapists offer visits at our Downtown Brooklyn office and by telehealth across NY, NJ, PA, FL, and CT, with same-day and next-day openings often available.

Psychiatric Services Available Under Oxford Coverage at Good Health
Psychiatric Evaluation
Every new patient starts with a detailed psychiatric evaluation by a board-certified psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner. In this visit, your clinician goes over your symptoms, history, and any past treatment, checks for co-occurring conditions, and sets out a treatment plan with you. Oxford plans generally cover this evaluation as an outpatient behavioral health service.
Medication Management with an Oxford In-Network Psychiatrist
If you start medication, an Oxford in-network psychiatrist or nurse practitioner prescribes it and continues to see you for follow-up visits. Each visit looks at how you are responding, whether the dose needs to change, and how to manage side effects. These Oxford covered psychiatry visits are billed as outpatient care, and your prescriber checks your plan's drug list to keep pharmacy costs reasonable.
Therapy Covered by Oxford Health Plans
Good Health's therapists who take Oxford include licensed clinical social workers (LCSWs), licensed mental health counselors (LMHCs), and psychologists. Sessions may use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), trauma-focused therapy, solution-focused therapy, or another evidence-based method, depending on your needs and goals. Oxford plans typically cover outpatient individual therapy, with copays that depend on your plan.
Does Oxford Cover TMS Therapy for Depression?
Yes, when clinical criteria are met. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-cleared treatment for major depressive disorder that has not improved with antidepressants. Because Oxford is part of UnitedHealthcare, TMS requests are reviewed under Optum's behavioral health criteria, which generally look for at least two antidepressant trials that did not bring relief. Good Health handles the prior authorization before your first session.
Spravato (Esketamine) with Oxford Coverage
Spravato is an FDA-approved esketamine nasal spray for adults with treatment-resistant depression, or with major depressive disorder and active suicidal thoughts. Each treatment is given at our Brooklyn office, with a clinician monitoring you for the full observation period afterward. Oxford covers Spravato when prior authorization and medical necessity requirements are met, and our clinical team takes care of that process for you.
Benefits vary from one Oxford plan to another. Good Health confirms your coverage before your first visit so you know what you will pay.

Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Good Health Psychiatric Services is in-network with all Oxford group and individual plans. That means your psychiatry and therapy visits are billed at Oxford’s contracted rates, and you pay only your plan’s copay, coinsurance, or deductible. Our team verifies your Oxford benefits at no charge before your first appointment.
Oxford Health Plans is a UnitedHealthcare company that offers employer and individual coverage in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. Oxford members manage their benefits through the myUHC portal, and mental health benefits are handled through UnitedHealthcare’s behavioral health network. If your card says Oxford, use it as is; Good Health bills Oxford directly.
The network name affects which providers you can see and whether you need a referral, but not whether Good Health accepts you. Freedom is Oxford’s largest network, while Liberty and Metro are smaller networks that usually come with lower premiums. You can find your network name on your Oxford ID card, and our team will confirm the rules that apply to your plan.
It depends on your plan. Oxford Freedom plans do not require a referral from a primary care physician for specialist visits. Liberty and Metro plans are offered with or without a referral requirement, depending on the plan your employer chose. Check your plan documents or the myUHC portal, or let our front desk check this when they verify your benefits.
Your cost depends on your plan’s copay or coinsurance and whether you have met your deductible. Under the federal Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, Oxford cannot apply stricter cost-sharing or visit limits to mental health care than to comparable medical care. Good Health sends you an estimate based on your actual benefits before your first visit, and our team can help with an appeal if a claim is denied.
