Aetna and Medi-Cal now cover TMS therapy for teens 15 years and older, offering accessible, non-drug treatments for anxiety and depression.
COSTA MESA, Calif., Sept. 2, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- TMS Health and Wellness, a premier center for innovative mental health treatments, is excited to announce that Aetna and Medi-Cal now cover Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy for teens aged 15 and up. This non-drug treatment provides effective relief from anxiety, depression, and sleep deprivation and occasionally improves ADHD symptoms, allowing younger patients to avoid the potential side effects of psych medications.
TMS Health and Wellness also continues to offer TMS therapy for adults 18 and older, covered by all PPOs, Medi-Cal, and Medicare. Unlike many other practices, TMS Health and Wellness proudly accepts Medicare patients with supplemental insurance plans, ensuring they can access this life-changing treatment by improving memory, cognition, anxiety, and depression.
"We are thrilled that Aetna now recognizes the importance of early intervention with TMS therapy for teens," said Dr. Claudia Eppele, M.D., founder and Chief Medical Officer of TMS Health and Wellness. "This coverage allows us to help younger patients manage their mental health without the need for multiple medications, setting them on a path to long-term wellness."
TMS therapy, FDA-approved for treating anxiety and depression, uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific areas of the brain, offering a non-invasive solution for those who haven't found relief with traditional therapies. At TMS Health and Wellness, we complement TMS with a range of holistic treatments, including Spravato, natural medicine, hormonal balance testing, high-quality supplements, CBT therapy, neurofeedback, habit modification, time management for teens, and Concierge Medicine. We also incorporate cognitive testing and brain scans before and after treatment to provide objective measures of improvement.
With locations in Costa Mesa and Faith Recovery in Long Beach (Palo Verde), TMS Health and Wellness is committed to providing accessible, top-quality care to those in need.
