Accessing quality mental health care has long been a challenge, especially for those facing barriers like long wait times, limited providers, or the stigma associated with seeking support. Now, Blue Cross NC members aged 13 and older can take advantage of Meru Health’s innovative, clinically validated mental health program—bringing structured, whole-person care directly to their fingertips.
A new way to support mental well-being
Mental health conditions such as anxiety, depression, and burnout are on the rise across all age groups, with teens experiencing some of the most significant challenges. Traditional therapy often focuses solely on talk therapy, but mental health is complex—it’s connected to sleep, nutrition, stress, and even daily habits. That’s why Meru Health’s 12-week program goes beyond talk therapy, integrating evidence-based care with lifestyle support to help individuals build sustainable well-being.
What Blue Cross NC members get with Meru Health:
Through their insurance plan, eligible Blue Cross NC members can access:
Personalized therapist support: Scheduled video calls and unlimited in-app messaging with a licensed therapist
On-demand practices: Weekly lessons to build lifelong mental wellness habits
Biofeedback technology: A free device to support heart rate variability therapy
Whole-person care: Support for lifestyle factors like sleep, nutrition, and exercise to improve mental well-being
Community connection: Anonymous support groups to share experiences
Bringing mental health care closer to home
Virtual care has made mental health support more accessible than ever. With Meru Health’s easy-to-use app, North Carolinians can receive care without long wait times or the need for in-person visits, making it easier to prioritize mental well-being on their own terms.
