Major Insurers

You don't have to let cost stand between you and recovery. Addiction and substance abuse services are often covered by your insurance carrier. Under the Mental Health Parity Act and the Affordable Care Act, most health plans are required to cover mental health and substance use disorder treatment much like any other medical condition. That can include screenings, detox, inpatient and outpatient care, counseling, and medication-assisted treatment. Coverage details vary by plan, so the best first step is to verify your benefits, either by calling the number on the back of your insurance card or by reaching out to us so we can help you check.
