Welcome to Access Behavioral Health

Since 2001, Access Behavioral Health (ABH) has managed the mental health and substance use services for Medicaid recipients and residents of northwest Florida. We have created a network of providers who focus on the core principles of recovery: strengths-based, person-centered, individualized treatment and support for people with mental illness and substance use disorders. Through contracting, monitoring, network management, and quality improvement efforts, we have improved the coordination, integration, and management of service delivery to those with emotional, mental, or addictive disorders.

Individualized treatment and support for people with mental illness and substance use disorders

ABH has developed a comprehensive, community-based system of care by contracting with experienced providers offering evidence-based services. We contract with a wide variety of behavioral health care providers to respect and ensure consumer choice and to meet the special health care needs of our Medicaid members. Guided by our mission of “helping people,” our specialized team strives to meet the behavioral health needs of those we serve.
