What is Aetna Insurance?

What Kind of Substance Abuse Treatment Does Aetna Cover?

As a part of the Affordable Care Act (ACA), Aetna provides insurance plans that cover some or all the cost of substance abuse treatment. If someone is looking for a way to get help, Aetna detox in Fort Lauderdale is a great option. Individual coverage depends on the member’s particular health plan and the provider they choose. 

People might be wondering what kind of treatments the plan covers. Aetna covers all types of detox treatments, including:

  • Detoxification
  • Inpatient rehabilitation
  • Residential rehabilitation
  • Partial hospital treatment
  • Intensive outpatient treatment
  • Continuing care programs

In some cases, authorization of a treatment program might be required. Authorization involves a review to determine whether the treatment or program in question meets Aetna’s criteria for coverage. The patient can check with their insurance provider to see if their substance abuse treatment or program would require authorization before treatment.

Is Mental Health Covered By Aetna?

In general, Aetna covers mental health treatment. However, there are some conditions that may affect someone’s eligibility for coverage. Aetna will cover mental health services provided by a psychiatrist, psychologist, or other licensed mental health professional. 

Someone might have to receive a referral from their primary care physician before they can begin seeing a specialist for mental health services. It is important to note that Aetna does not offer coverage for all mental health treatments. Instead, they have a list of specific conditions and treatments they do cover. 

The list of covered services includes: 

  • Psychiatric care inpatient hospitalization or residential treatment facilities
  • Inpatient psychiatric hospitalization in an acute psychiatric unit
  • Medication prescribed by a psychiatrist or physician 
  • Crisis intervention services, including short-term individual psychotherapy, group therapy, and family therapy

Aetna offers an Aetna Behavioral Health site that offers support and information whenever someone is ready. Additionally, all ACA plans cover mental health and substance use disorder services, emergency services, hospitalization, and rehabilitative and habilitative services and devices.

Aetna In-Network vs. Out-of-Network

When someone has a substance abuse disorder, it can be tough to know where to go for treatment. For this reason, when someone is on the hunt for doctors who accept their insurance coverage, it is important to understand what that means and how it impacts their ability to get the care they require.

Aetna in-network coverage means that they have a contract with their providers and pay them the same amount that they would if  the patient had insurance through them. They also cover out-of-network providers if someone has a special need, such as a specialist or for emergency care. Last but not least, out-of-network will require someone to pay more because the providers may charge them full price for their services.

Not all Aetna plans require services and facilities to be in-network, however, programs that are out-of-network may cost more. Depending on someone’s geographic location and specific Aetna policy coverage, the costs associated with substance abuse treatment programs and services may vary. Patients can learn more about the details of their Aetna plan contact a treatment member today.

Will I Have a Deductible for My Aetna Coverage?

Aetna health has several different insurance plans with varying levels of coverage. Someone’s detox can be covered, depending on their specific plan. They may have a deductible with their Aetna coverage. A deductible is the amount of money the patient has to pay out-of-pocket before their insurance company starts paying for their doctor visits and other services.

Regardless of what the patient’s insurance provider will cover, there is a wide range of alternative methods to help cover any expenses that may be required for treatment. For more information on treatment programs and insurance options, contact one of our treatment providers today.

The Retreat of Broward is DEFINITELY the BEST detox I have EVER been to, hands down. If you are in the need of detox Come Here!! The staff is amazingly supportive and your symptoms of withdrawal are taken care of soon after admission and is managed properly throughout your stay to ensure you are comfortable right through til discharge. MK is an amazing case manager who helps with any outside issues from legal issues to aftercare plans and everything in between. Adam is a lead tech who was able to calm me down during my outbursts and keep me safe in detox multiple times when I wanted to leave and use. Q is also amazing- I call her 'The Addict Whisperer' as she speaks to us clients on a level that we need during this process. I recommend The Retreat to everyone I meet. I only have positive things to stay. We go on outings that help get us out to getting our nails done and the movies. If you are trying to pick or decide on a detox this is the one.
