In most instances, insurance plans do cover addiction treatment, at least partially. The extent of coverage depends on the policy you have. If you are eligible for medical detox, most plans will cover it.
Your choice of treatment center and specialists depends on your insurance. HMO policies limit the number of facilities that are covered. PPO policies offer more flexibility and allow you to select providers outside your network at a higher cost.
To make sure you get the most out of your insurance coverage, it’s important to consult with BlueCross BlueShield to understand exactly what you’re covered for and how much you’ll need to pay out of pocket for detox and addiction treatment.
