Health

We know that mental health is as important as physical health, but too often feelings of stigma, along with the complexities of the mental health system, create barriers that prevent people from receiving this necessary care. That’s why we make mental health resources accessible to all our Associates.

You and your family have unlimited 24/7 phone, online and mobile access to experienced, professional consultants — real people — you can talk with when you need an answer to a question. This includes five free face-to-face, virtual or telephonic sessions with a licensed mental health professional per issue per year.
Spring Health provides you with confidential mental wellness tools and services to help you feel your best. You can use Spring Health for: Confidential Online Mental Health Assessment to identify common conditions, like anxiety and depression; Unlimited Care Navigation virtual appointments to help find the right care; Use Care Navigator’s expertise to answer questions and find solutions regarding mental health treatment, cost of care, insurance coverages, and more.
