Welcome New Providers
We’d like to extend a warm welcome to nearly 200 new providers who joined the Alliance network from December 2025 through February 2026! This includes ECM/CS providers, primary care providers, referral physicians, specialists and our new behavioral health network.
The Alliance now contracts with a network of behavioral health providers across our service area to directly manage non-specialty mental health services for our members. If you are interested in joining our behavioral health network, visit our Become an Alliance Behavioral Health Provider page.
