Known for its beautiful weather and beaches, California ranks 5th in the nation for its overall health care according to U.S. News. However, California ranks 21st when it comes to access to health care. The top two complaints by residents of California are that healthcare costs were too expensive, and access to services was hard to find. From limited providers offering services, to long wait times, those seeking mental health care have trouble finding options when in need. The state of California is working on overcoming these barriers through the expanded Medicaid programs, but access to services is still a big challenge.

If you live in California and struggle with access to services, you now have an opportunity. Bright Heart Health offers telemedicine treatment options if you need help overcoming any of these life-threatening conditions. BHH was the first telemedicine treatment program for opioid use in California. Your treatment plan will include one-on-one counseling sessions with licensed providers, group therapy, and medication assisted treatment (MAT). 

All telemedicine sessions are conducted using HIPAA-compliant Zoom, and we take Medi-Cal (California Medicaid), Medicare, most major insurance plans, and private pay. To access, all you need is an internet connection and a suitable device (laptop, tablet or smartphone).

When you or your loved one needs help, time is demanding. Delaying treatment will simply prolong the downward spiral of addiction or mental illness. Bright Heart Health is here to talk with you at any time, 24/7. You can click here or call 800-892-2695 to be instantly connected to a licensed healthcare professional who will talk one-on-one with you to assess your condition and recommend the right course of treatment.

All of your treatment will take place in the comfort and privacy of your home in California. There are no waitlists, no barriers to getting access. We want to make the intake process as quick and easy as possible, so that we can spend time focusing on you.

Working with Bright Heart Health will happen in your home or from anywhere via telemedicine. This flexibility is a huge advantage if you have a strict work schedule, have family responsibilities, or find staying at home is more comfortable for you. In some cases, you may need services that are in-person, such as receiving medically supervised detox, but you will return home as soon as it is safe for you to do so. All you need to begin services with BHH are an internet connection and a laptop, tablet or smartphone. It’s that easy and simple.

We offer one-on-one sessions with providers licensed to practice in California. Our team includes physicians, dietitians, nurse practitioners, social workers, and other therapists who are specially trained to assess and treat substance use, eating disorders, chronic pain, and mental health conditions.

The opioid epidemic is snowballing across California, affecting all age groups and demographics. Those struggling with opioid dependence can get help and recover completely. However, there is a shortage of healthcare professionals who are qualified to help those dependent on opioids. California has been scrambling for a way to serve the millions of people affected by addiction. Bright Heart Health is one of the few programs accepting California Medicaid.
