Dr. Bowman – Board Certified Psychiatrist

I am a board-certified psychiatrist with over eighteen years of clinical experience in Child & Adolescent and Adult Psychiatry, Addiction Medicine, and Correctional Psychiatry, who has worked within various team-based healthcare systems including Medication-Assisted Treatment and Withdrawal Management programs for addictions and caring for those with serious and chronic mental illness on an Assertive Community Treatment team. Prior to joining Atracare as a part-time clinical Psychiatrist, I had most recently been working as a staff Psychiatrist within the Veterans Health Administration for the past 7 years providing general and geriatric psychiatric care and addiction management. I am also currently working as a Behavioral Health Medical Director for Centene Corporation/ Delaware First Health Plan. I strive to listen carefully and work collaboratively; and I strive to pay attention to the details but also see the larger picture, while seeking to make a positive and meaningful impact in the mental health and functioning of my patients.

Atracare & The Medical Society of Delaware: Fighting for Prior Authorization Reform

Have you ever been frustrated waiting for an insurance company to approve a procedure, surgery, or even a prescription? You’re not alone — and Atracare is taking an active role in helping change that.

These unnecessary delays can stretch from days to weeks, creating unnecessary stress and sometimes preventing timely care altogether. That’s why new legislation, supported by the Medical Society of Delaware, is so important. The proposed bill would require insurance companies to respond to prior authorization requests within hours, not days, helping patients get the care and medications they need without frustrating hold-ups.
