Norwich has been on its own path for a long time — a small city in eastern Connecticut that doesn't always get the same resources as Hartford or New Haven. And when it comes to psychiatric care that accepts Husky Health? The options are genuinely limited. Many practices in the Norwich-New London corridor have closed their Medicaid panels or have waitlists that stretch out six months or longer. Elite Health LLC is actively accepting new Husky Health patients from Norwich. Sindhia Shyras — board-certified Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner with nine years of specialized experience — sees Norwich residents via telehealth, statewide, without the wait. Book from your home in Norwich. Your Husky Health plan covers it.
Husky Health — Connecticut's Medicaid program — covers psychiatric evaluations, medication management, and telehealth mental health visits. Under Connecticut's mental health parity law, these services are covered at the same rate as physical health appointments. So if you have Husky A, B, C, or D, your mental health care is part of the package. Many Norwich patients with Husky Health find their copay is $0 or just a few dollars. And if your plan requires prior authorization for a specific medication or service, we handle that paperwork — you don't need to figure it out on your own.
Sindhia treats depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, ADHD, bipolar disorder, OCD, panic disorder, insomnia, and mood disorders. Your first appointment is a full psychiatric evaluation — a real conversation, not a checklist. She reviews your history, what's been going on, how long it's been affecting you, and what treatment approaches make sense for your specific situation. Follow-up medication management visits are built into your care plan from the start so there's always a next step.
