Scripps Health Plan
Effective April 1, 2026, Magellan* will no longer manage the behavioral health services for Scripps Health Plan members.
To continue as an in-network provider serving these members on and after April 1, 2026, you’ll need to follow Scripps Health Plan's processes to become a contracted provider – visit Carelon Behavioral Health.
For dates of service through March 31, 2026, continue with current processes via Magellan. For dates of service on and after April 1, 2026, verify eligibility and benefits, obtain prior authorization, and submit claims following Scripps Health Plan's processes.
We’ll publish further details and resources as they become available.
