Aetna Rehab Insurance for Substance Abuse
If you or a loved one is suffering from drug or alcohol abuse, finding the right treatment center is extremely important. Unfortunately, it can be stressful having to worry about the cost and thinking that your insurance won’t cover it. The stigma around substance abuse has shifted since insurers understand that addiction is a disease.
We want you to be able to rely on your insurance company to cover the costs of addiction treatment. For this reason, at Healthy Life Recovery, financing addiction treatment is possible for those who have Aetna health insurance.
Services Covered By Aetna
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires health care insurers to cover substance use issues just as they would any other medical condition.
Aetna is a health care company that has been providing insurance coverage to individuals and employers for over 160 years. Aetna offers coverage for addiction treatment consisting of a wide range of mental and behavioral health services. Specific insurance plans provide coverage for detox, counseling, inpatient rehabilitation, intensive outpatient treatment, residential rehabilitation, and partial hospital treatment.
Furthermore, Aetna rehab insurance covers costs for treatment facilities that offer continuing care for individuals battling a drug or alcohol addiction. To determine what your particular policy covers, you will need to contact your insurer. This way, you will know the exact coinsurance (insurance that kicks in once you pay your full deductible), copays, and deductibles there might be. You can also give the staff at Healthy Life Recovery a call to verify your insurance plan.
Inpatient and Outpatient Rehab Program and Costs
Inpatient and outpatient rehab treatment costs may vary depending on your location and the Aetna coverage policy. For in-network inpatient services, some Aetna plans have a 0 percent coinsurance. Please note that for out-of-network providers, coverage will vary, such as 30 to 50 percent coinsurance. At Healthy Life Recovery, our San Diego drug rehab is in-network with Atena insurance.

Part of Aetna’s commitment is to follow up with their patients during continuing care. Social events are sometimes organized to celebrate achievements throughout recovery. Treatment programs such as these show significant results because it keeps individuals involved in the community by providing on-going support.

Methadone is a neurotic used to treat heroin addiction, helping reduce withdrawal symptoms with detox. Aetna rehab insurance does cover methadone treatment, but it will depend on a few factors.

Are you looking for a drug rehab that accepts Cigna insurance instead?
There are many similarities, as well as differences between the two insurance plans. The good news is, you do not have to be torn on which rehab center to go to if you carry Cigna insurance instead. At Healthy Life Recovery, we also accept Cigna’s policy. It would be best to speak with a Cigna medical advisor to go over what treatments will be covered with your plan.
