Does NYCE PPO cover therapy?
Yes. NYCE PPO covers outpatient mental health therapy, and Crown Counseling accepts it for individual and family therapy in Brooklyn and by video across New York State. NYCE PPO is the plan the City of New York started on January 1, 2026 for its employees, pre-Medicare retirees and their families. It replaced GHI-CBP, so if you had GHI-CBP through the City, you were moved to NYCE PPO automatically.
