What It Is

What the program is and what members do.

What the program is

HAP describes a program run by its Coordinated Behavioral Health Management department. It helps members who take antidepressants give themselves the best chance of recovery by staying on the medication for as long as needed.

How members use it

HAP describes written outreach, support and education about depression and antidepressants. The page does not describe an enrollment step, so it reads as outreach HAP starts.

What it covers or does not

The page describes adherence support and education. It does not describe therapy, a crisis line or prescribing, and it gives no cost statement.

Who Can Use It

Eligibility, funding and plan design.

Who can use it

HAP lists employer group and Medicare members as eligible. That is the audience the page states, and it does not describe the individual criteria for outreach.

How it is funded or sold

The page gives no price or rider. It reads as a plan-run quality program. Ask HAP whether it is part of the group’s standard administration.

Where it fits in plan design

It fits next to the behavioral health benefit and any employee assistance program. It is a quiet support layer and not a replacement for access to therapy or psychiatry.

What To Ask

What to settle before relying on it.

How are members contacted?

The page describes written outreach. We would ask how HAP identifies members and how it protects their privacy, since the contact concerns a medication.

Does it connect to treatment access?

The program supports staying on medication. We would ask how HAP links members to therapy or a prescriber if they need more help.

Is it included for our group?

HAP lists employer group members. We would ask HAP to confirm in writing that our plan is included.
