ConnectiCare — a Connecticut Original

ConnectiCare has been insuring Connecticut residents since the early days of managed care — founded in this state, by this state, for this state. As an EmblemHealth plan, it's one of the most widely held insurance options in central Connecticut. And because Elite Health LLC is in-network with ConnectiCare, Rocky Hill residents with HMO, PLUS, Medicare Advantage, or employer group plans can use their benefits here without going out-of-network. Copays for specialist psychiatry typically fall in the $20–$50 range depending on your specific plan, though checking connecticare.com or calling member services will give you the exact numbers for your coverage.

What Your ConnectiCare Plan Covers

Connecticut's Mental Health Parity Act means your ConnectiCare plan must cover psychiatric care — including evaluation, medication management, and ongoing therapy — on the same terms as any physical health specialist visit. There's no separate, worse mental health deductible. Telehealth psychiatry is covered at in-person copay rates under most ConnectiCare CT plans, which makes it a genuinely cost-effective option for Rocky Hill patients who want flexibility. If prior authorization is required for your ongoing medication management, Sindhia's practice submits that on your behalf. You focus on getting better; we handle the paperwork.

Frequently Asked Questions

It depends on your specific ConnectiCare plan, but specialist psychiatric visits typically carry a copay in the $20–$50 range. If you haven't yet met your annual deductible, you may pay more until you do — after that, your copay kicks in. The most accurate way to find your number is to log into connecticare.com and check your benefits summary, or call the member services line on the back of your card and ask specifically about specialist mental health visits. We can also help verify before your first appointment if you give us a call.

Yes. ConnectiCare covers psychiatric evaluation for ADHD as well as ongoing medication management — both are standard mental health benefits under your plan. Stimulant medications commonly prescribed for ADHD may require prior authorization from ConnectiCare before the prescription is processed at the pharmacy, but Sindhia's team handles that submission. It can take a few business days, so flagging it at your first appointment helps keep things moving. Rocky Hill adults and teens dealing with ADHD are seen regularly here — it's one of the most common reasons people book.

Yes — Elite Health LLC is in-network with ConnectiCare. You can confirm by searching for Sindhia Shyras, APRN in the ConnectiCare provider directory at connecticare.com, or by calling ConnectiCare member services. When you call, just ask whether the provider and practice are in-network for your specific plan type, since HMO and PLUS plans have slightly different networks. We're happy to verify on your behalf when you call to book.
