Licensure & Credentials
Physician-Led Medical Expertise for Alaska Residents
Psychiatric care requires a deep understanding of the whole person. Our team consists of board-certified psychiatrists with advanced medical training.
Care for Alaska patients is provided by Roberto E. Montenegro, MD, PhD, who is licensed by the Alaska State Medical Board. Dr. Montenegro is board-certified in adult psychiatry and in child and adolescent psychiatry. He completed his adult psychiatry residency at Yale University and his child and adolescent psychiatry fellowship at the University of Washington.
Because telepsychiatry allows you to meet with your psychiatrist remotely, you can access specialty psychiatric care from anywhere in Alaska without traveling to a major metropolitan area.

Fees & Insurance
Fees and Out-of-Network Insurance Coverage
Montenegro & Associates Behavioral Health accepts Blue Cross Blue Shield plans (except Premera), subject to individual plan and network eligibility, and otherwise operates primarily as an out-of-network provider for Alaska commercial health insurance plans.
For patients whose plans we are out-of-network with, we provide comprehensive, itemized medical superbills through our secure patient portal. Many patients use these documents to request partial reimbursement through their insurance plan's out-of-network behavioral health benefits.
Our office can also submit eligible superbills on your behalf through Reimbursify at no additional cost to you.
Because insurance benefits and provider networks vary by plan, we recommend contacting your insurance carrier directly to confirm your behavioral health benefits and any applicable deductible, coinsurance, or out-of-network reimbursement. Current fees and plan participation are listed on our Fees & Insurance page.
FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Can your physicians prescribe medications to me if your physical offices are outside Alaska?
Yes. Care for Alaska patients is provided by a physician licensed to practice medicine in Alaska. When clinically appropriate, your psychiatrist can electronically send prescriptions to your preferred Alaska pharmacy, subject to applicable state and federal prescribing requirements and our practice policies.
Please note that we are not currently prescribing controlled substances in Alaska, including stimulant medications commonly used to treat ADHD.
Do I ever need to travel to your physical office?
No. Your care is conducted entirely via secure video visits. There is no requirement to travel to our physical headquarters.
How do you handle coordination with my local therapist?
With your signed consent, we emphasize collaborative partnerships. We regularly communicate with Alaska-based psychologists, licensed therapists, and primary care providers to ensure your medical and psychological care is fully aligned.
