With Anthem, you’re likely able to receive coverage for addiction treatment and can be covered up to 100% depending on your plan and deductible.

See if your Anthem plan will cover all or parts of your treatment at our San Diego drug rehab by filling out our insurance verification form.

For example, Anthem Blue Cross offers 14 insurance policies that include substance abuse treatment coverage. However, each plan covers different amounts for different forms of treatment and for different lengths of time.

  • Co-payments
  • Hospital benefits
  • Outpatient treatment
  • Partial hospitalization program
  • Physician benefits

Depending on the specific treatment needed, the co-payment and out-of-pocket costs will differ significantly. However, Blue Cross does guarantee that substance abuse treatment copayments and coinsurance costs will reflect similar medical services. Also, there are no limits on the amount of medically necessary services covered.

Blue Cross Policies Regarding Rehab Coverage

When using Blue Cross insurance to enroll in rehab, the first step is to contact our team, and we will assist you in getting more information from Blue Cross. Sometimes, rehab services require preauthorization to be covered. The preauthorization process can be done over the phone or by filling out paperwork. Most Blue Cross plans do not require referrals to see the specialist of choice, just a verification for services rendered.

Depending on which plan, coverage for rehab can vary. For example, some plans might require a co-payment for office and outpatient appointments. There will be a copayment needed, which is a set amount paid upfront for treatment services.

Insurance plans will also have a deductible amount, coinsurance rates, and annual fees.

Blue Cross plans are all very different; but many plans will cover mental health, behavioral health, and distribution treatment services. These include:

  • Hospital treatment
  • Inpatient treatment
  • Office visits
  • Outpatient treatment
  • Partial day treatment
  • Psychological testing
  • Residential treatment

Verification will be required prior to enrolling in the program offered through a Blue Cross provider, like Present Moments. Outpatient and inpatient treatment services will usually include relapse prevention skills training, educational programs, therapy, medical and mental health care, support groups, detox services, and medication management.

Medical Necessity

One of the roadblocks in obtaining precise information regarding what is not covered by Blue Cross is the medical necessity issue. The therapist or physician who determines that residential treatment is necessary might need to provide an addiction diagnosis to the insurance provider, proving it is a medical necessity.

Unfortunately, physical dependence and withdrawal symptoms are usually not enough proof that residential treatment is a medical necessity. The increased risk of relapse during outpatient treatment will not guarantee approval for inpatient treatment. In some instances, patients will need to prove that outpatient treatment won’t work for their situation, or they might be required to utilize it first if they want their insurance to cover the cost.

Clients will also benefit if they proactively get pre-authorization for the therapy services needed before they begin treatment to guarantee that their insurance company covers them.

Covering Additional Rehab Costs

Even in the best-case scenario, most health insurance policies do not cover the entire cost of detox and residential treatment. Clients will be responsible for coming up with the remainder of the bill. Although this may sound overwhelming, especially when someone involved is suffering from addiction, it could be a life-saving decision.

Many people side step using health insurance to solely cover the cost of addiction treatment because it delays the admissions to rehab or because the effort doesn’t equate the time put in. Instead, people will utilize various resources to cover treatment costs.
