Blue Cross Blue Shield rehab coverage in Orange County
Blue Cross Blue Shield is the most widely accepted insurance in OC treatment facilities. If you have Blue Cross Blue Shield coverage, you likely have access to addiction treatment in Orange County at significantly reduced cost or no cost.
What Blue Cross Blue Shield covers for addiction treatment
Under the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, Blue Cross Blue Shield must cover addiction treatment at the same level as other medical care. This typically includes medical detox, residential treatment, PHP, IOP, outpatient counseling, and medication-assisted treatment. Coverage specifics (deductibles, copays, authorized length of stay) depend on your specific plan.
How to verify your coverage
Call the behavioral health number on the back of your Blue Cross Blue Shield card. Ask specifically about substance use disorder benefits: What levels of care are covered? What is my deductible? Do I need prior authorization? What are my out-of-pocket maximums? Many OC treatment facilities verify Blue Cross Blue Shield benefits for free during the admissions process.
