Carelon
Anthem / Elevance's behavioral health network
Our most fully captured network — real negotiated facility rates across detox, residential, PHP, IOP, and inpatient psychiatric care.
Platform · Data
Real facility rates, from the payers that matter in behavioral health.
TierBench is built on actual negotiated facility rates — detox, residential, PHP, IOP, ABA, and eating-disorder programs — from the major behavioral health payers, not the professional therapy rates anyone can pull. We go deep where it counts.
We lead with depth, not a long logo wall.
Anyone can aggregate professional therapy rates. The hard, valuable data is facility-level: the real rates freestanding behavioral health facilities actually negotiate — captured across both specialist behavioral health carve-out networks and major commercial carriers' own books. That's the depth you see below, led by four national books and backed by regional coverage — not a wall of logos we can't stand behind.
Payers we cover
Built in two tiers — national behavioral health books at the core, with regional and extended coverage around them.
Our deepest coverage comes from four national behavioral health books — two specialist carve-out networks and two major commercial carriers' own books — so a facility can benchmark the same level of care across structurally different payers.
Optum
UnitedHealth's behavioral health network
National behavioral health carve-out with facility-level capture across the core levels of care — detox, residential, PHP, IOP, and inpatient psychiatric care.
Aetna
National commercial behavioral health book
A major national commercial carrier's own behavioral facility book — structurally different from the carve-out networks, which widens the benchmark. Facility rates across detox, residential, PHP, IOP, and inpatient psychiatric care.
Cigna
National commercial behavioral health book
Another major national carrier's in-house behavioral facility book, adding a distinct payer structure to the comparison set — facility-level rates across the behavioral health levels of care.
Regional & extended facility coverage
Alongside the national books, we carry regional facility books and extended coverage that broaden the picture.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts
Regional facility book
Facility-level behavioral health rates from a leading Massachusetts payer — deepening our coverage in the region alongside Blue Cross Blue Shield of Rhode Island.
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Rhode Island
Regional facility book
Facility-level behavioral health rates across the Rhode Island market.
MedCost
Regional network (North Carolina)
Facility-level behavioral health rates across the levels of care.
UnitedHealthcare
Regional facility coverage (North Carolina)
A separate North Carolina facility slice — distinct from UnitedHealth's Optum behavioral network above — adding facility-level coverage in the state.
Anthem Blue Cross (California)
Regional facility book (California)
Facility-level behavioral health rates across the California market from the state's Anthem licensee.
Blue Shield of California
Regional facility book (California)
A second California Blue — facility-level behavioral health rates that deepen the state's benchmark alongside Anthem Blue Cross.
Kaiser Permanente (Northern California)
Regional facility book (California)
Facility-level behavioral health rates from Kaiser's Northern California region — a closed-network payer whose contracted facility rates are rarely visible elsewhere.
Valley Health Plan
Regional network (Santa Clara County, California)
A county-based plan with a modest facility book — adding local depth in the South Bay.
BBA
Broad national facility reach
Wide national facility coverage — including freestanding substance-use providers — that broadens the set of facilities in view. Here the value is reach: breadth of facility coverage rather than deep rate detail.
Plus additional payers as we ingest and verify them.
TierBench is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by any payer named on this page. All rate data is sourced from payers' publicly available Transparency in Coverage machine-readable files.
Service lines we go deep on
These are the facility-level lines that are the differentiator — the data professional-rate aggregators don't have.
Detox
Medically managed withdrawal — a facility-level line, not a professional fee.
Residential
24-hour residential treatment, priced at the facility level.
PHP
Partial hospitalization — a facility-level day rate.
IOP
Intensive outpatient — a facility-level line, not the professional therapy rate.
ABA
Applied behavior analysis — assessment and treatment programs, tracked as their own code category.
Eating disorder
Eating-disorder residential, PHP and IOP programs — benchmarked on the same level-of-care codes; MRF rates are published per billing code, not per diagnosis.
Geography
Today our deepest facility coverage spans Massachusetts, Rhode Island, North Carolina, and California, alongside national behavioral health networks — with Massachusetts and California each backed by multiple payers. We're expanding facility coverage continuously.
Freshness
Our rates reflect 2026 payer data, with every book stamped with its own ingest vintage. We continuously re-ingest and re-verify sources, and we flag data we can't confirm rather than present it as fresh.
Every rate is extracted from public Transparency in Coverage files, resolved to the facility, and checked for reliability.
