Southwest Behavioral Health Center is the prepaid mental health provider for all Medicaid enrollees in the designated
counties of Southwest Utah. If you live in the Center’s service area (Beaver, Garfield, Kane, Iron or Washington counties),
have a Medicaid card, and need mental health services (psychiatric, hospital or clinical), Southwest Behavioral Health
Center is your provider. All of your mental health care must be approved by Southwest Behavioral Health Center before
you or any family member can receive services to be paid by Medicaid. Services provided by other physicians or providers
MUST be pre-authorized by Southwest Behavioral Health Center. Call one of the offices or (800) 574-6763 toll-free to
request services.
The office in your area will evaluate the need for services and establish a plan with you. Medicaid
clients may qualify for transportation assistance. For more information, contact the Intake Specialist in the office where
you receive treatment. For information on Southwest Behavioral Health Center’s formal grievance process, contact the
receptionist at one of the offices.
