Rehabs That Take United Healthcare

Every insurance policy has its own set of terms and treatments or services that it will cover, including substance abuse treatment programs. So, the specifics of your UnitedHealthcare policy are what will determine which kinds of programs can be covered. There are many possibilities, such as those listed below.

• Private rehabs: Attending a private rehab facility can allow an individual to receive customized, personal treatment to overcome addiction challenges.
• Luxury rehabs: A luxury rehab will provide individuals with high-end amenities and other nice touches, while still delivering the vital care needed to overcome addiction.
• Dual diagnosis rehabs: Many individuals receive a dual diagnosis of both substance use disorder and mental health disorder, so visiting a rehab that offers this type of care is important.
• Rehab retreats: Getting away from typical settings to attend a retreat where rehab is the focus has been shown to deliver impressive results.
• Rehab ranch: The natural world can have impressive healing powers, which is why the ranch setting is often used as an ideal place for rehab to occur.
• Men’s rehabs: Some rehab facilities have programs established that are designed specifically to serve the needs of men facing substance use addiction.
• Women’s rehabs: There are female-focused rehab programs available to address the needs of women in this situation.
• Couples rehab: Getting treatment together as a couple can be a powerful way to move forward when both partners in a relationship are suffering from an addiction.
• Coed rehabs: Often, no gender lines are drawn between types of rehab, and UnitedHealthcare policies are likely to cover such facilities.
• State rehabs: State-run facilities may be able to accept UnitedHealthcare policies, in addition to taking Medicaid, to cover the cost of services.
• Holistic rehabs: Rehab is only successful when all parts of the individual are addressed, not just the physical act of abusing a substance. A holistic drug rehab facility can help to connect the mind, body, and spirit successfully.
• Executive rehab programs: For a busy professional who needs to balance work obligations with the realities of going through rehab, executive programs can be particularly useful.

UnitedHealthcare, as an insurance provider, covers a comprehensive range of addiction treatment services. Addiction treatment is a process that needs to progress through many steps of inpatient and outpatient services in order to be successful.

Both inpatient and outpatient forms of treatment will typically be covered by your insurance policy with UnitedHealthcare.

Some of the kinds of addiction treatment you may need include these categories –

Yes, UnitedHealthcare does cover substance abuse treatment or dual diagnosis treatment under its United Healthcare Coverage. It is common for substance use disorder to come along with a mental health disorder of some kind. In healthcare terms, an individual who is diagnosed with both a mental health disorder and substance use disorder is considered to have received a “dual diagnosis”.

If you receive a dual diagnosis, you can rest assured that your UnitedHealthcare policy will cover treatment for both sides of this disorder. In fact, receiving such a diagnosis and entering a licensed dual diagnosis program is often the best possible outcome.

As mental health disorders almost always accompany substance abuse issues, treating them both at the same time is an ideal approach that will often lead to a successful outcome.

There is a root cause at the heart of every instance of substance abuse. Dual diagnosis treatment aims to unlock the underlying issues leading to addiction, allowing the path toward a brighter future to become much clearer.

Like all insurance companies, UnitedHealthcare offers a wide range of plans and policies under its umbrella, including the United Healthcare plan which caters to a variety of coverage needs. Some of the most common types of healthcare plans used are outlined below, along with a brief explanation.

• HMO: With a Health Maintenance Organization plan, you can reach out directly to us to check your insurance and get started with treatment. You do need to select a primary care physician on this kind of plan who will then provide referrals for other types of care with specialists.
• PPO: Through a Preferred Provider Organization plan, UnitedHealthcare will allow you to pick your own providers for care, rather than going through a primary care physician.
• POS: With a Point of Service plan, you pick a primary care physician, just like with an HMO plan. However, you do have the option to pick an out-of-network provider within that plan.
• EPO: By choosing an Exclusive Provider Organization plan, you do get to pick your own providers like with PPO, but you will be restricted to providers who are in the network that has been established by UnitedHealthcare.

If you purchased your insurance through the Health Insurance Marketplace, you were able to pick from three different coverage levels – often referred to as the “metal” system. Those and levels are as follows:

• Gold plan: The highest of the three-tiered “metal” system devised by the Health Insurance Marketplace, gold plans will have the greatest degree of coverage but will also come with the highest monthly premium.
• Silver plan: This is the middle level of the plans offered on the Marketplace, which for many people will be a good balance of cost and coverage. It’s important to note that the coverage and benefits for addiction treatment offered by United Healthcare plans vary based on the policy, location, and individual needs.
• Bronze plan: Those who want to keep their monthly premium costs as low as possible will look for a Bronze plan through UnitedHealthcare. These premiums will be modest but more out-of-pocket costs will be incurred when care is needed.
