Ambetter Rehab Coverage at Principles Recovery
It’s a big choice to decide to enter treatment for addiction, but making it happen can become complicated. It can be stressful to coordinate your life and ensure all your needs and responsibilities are taken care of. You’ll want to try and find insurance coverage for rehab to alleviate the cost.
But despite the difficulties, it’s always worth it to enter treatment and start doing the work to create a new life of sobriety. Principles Recovery is in-network with Ambetter Health Insurance, which means that there will be support and coverage from Ambetter when you’re ready to take the next step toward recovery.
What Substance Abuse Treatment Will Ambetter Cover?
The first step of rehabilitation is typically medically-assisted detoxification. This is commonly covered by insurance, but it’s imperative to check with Ambetter to ensure that coverage is full and complete. This process involves the body purging the addictive substance, which can be very hazardous to the person. Medical assistance and monitoring is necessary in order to ensure that withdrawal does not cause lasting damage to the body. Depending on the substance, improperly managed detoxification may cause extreme discomfort or death.
Ambetter will typically cover most forms of inpatient care for addiction. However, there are varying degrees of coverage and the exact amount may vary by plan. You may also need to meet a deductible before you’re entitled to rehab coverage. There may be exceptions for certain program types, such as intensive outpatient therapy.
Outpatient treatment is covered by different degrees and may differ by coverage plan. Principles Recovery is within the network for Ambetter, so those with coverage for outpatient treatment will likely be able to continue their treatment through the same facility. However, it’s important to ensure that you know if the coverage includes an entire treatment plan or solely counseling sessions (or other standalone treatment offerings).
When it comes to various forms of aftercare programs, coverage may differ depending on your area and your needs. Sober living can sometimes only be covered up to a certain time, or only at certain treatment centers. Make sure to ensure coverage before entering inpatient or outpatient treatment, so you can transfer directly to sober living without issue and continue your treatment without additional stress.
What Will Ambetter Insurance Not Cover?
Ambetter may provide insurance coverage for rehab, but they may not cover treatment options that are not evidence-based. Treatments not approved by the FDA may also not qualify for coverage.
Call to make sure that your desired level of treatment will be covered, and to what extent. Your coverage may include assistance with locating treatment centers in your area that are compatible with your coverage.
Depending on if you have a gold, silver, or bronze plan with Ambetter, you can expect to pay different rates of out-of-pocket costs. This is also true if you’re working with an Ambetter Value Plan or an Ambetter Virtual Access Plan. Call to ensure you know exactly what you will be expected to pay at every turn so that there are no surprises when you exit treatment.
