Clients
PBH clients are typically self-insured employers who are burdened by direct and indirect employee health care costs.
Direct Health Care Costs
These costs can be significantly reduced by carving out mental health and addiction benefits and then acessing the large, discounted PBH provider network.
Over the last 10 years, PBH has been able to develop one of the largest behavioral health networks in the state of Wisconsin with over 600 individual providers. These providers meet very specific standards and have agreed to significantly discounted rates. In return, PBH directs referrals to these providers, works as a collegial partner to promote providers, assure efficient processing of claims and authorize services consistant with client benefits.
Indirect Health Care Costs
Indirect cost savings can be achieved by making quality behavioral health services easily available to employees, while at the same time assuring these services are appropriate and guided by professional care standards.

One out of four individuals experiences mental health or substance abuse disorder each year. Those with behavioral disorders are twice as likely to suffer from medical problems as adults without mental illness. Decreased productivity, increased risk, and absenteeism are related issues that employers must deal with on an ongoing basis.
With PBH professional case management services, employers can find comfort and cost savings because professional mental health case managers facilitate employee access to PBH providers and monitor care in accordance with established, national standards.
