Insurance from Beacon is particularly noteworthy in regard to treating addiction because they’re specialized in behavioral health conditions. They offer top tier substance abuse disorder and clinical mental health management, a broad employee assistance program (EAP) in addition to specialty programs for autism and depression.
Addiction is a disease that latches on to you tightly and once you’re in its grips, it’s tough to see a light at the end of that tunnel and find a way out. As you fall further into the depths, the devastation quickly spreads to family and friends who are left helpless. Suffering, albeit differently, as spectators.
It’s a long road getting to the point that you’re able to recognize and acknowledge there’s a problem but from that realization springs possibilities and hope. For substance abuse disorders, one of the most effective solutions available comes in the form of rehab. Finding the best place for you or a loved one, a match that ticks the boxes for your needs, is critical.
A major consideration along the way though – and something that everyone looking into treatment has to deal with – is cost. It’s a major factor, and rightfully so, rehab can vary wildly in price depending on the amount of time that’s required, the specifics of the program and more. Having those costs be a barrier to the treatment you desperately need is a challenge you don’t need in times that are already intensely trying.
Fortunately, insurance benefits from Beacon Health Options can cover some, if not most, of the charges associated with rehab for addiction assuming that the treatment center you pick is included in your plan.
Founded from a merger between Beacon Health Strategies and Value Options, the roots of the company stretch back more than 30 years. Today they insure 40 million people nationwide, across all 50 states.

Taking off from that last point of Beacon helping in individual treatment planning and adding it to their remarkable emphasis on behavioral health means they have their finger on the pulse of substance abuse treatment. Therefore, you can feel confident in the duration of treatment they’re paying for and covering.
How long they pay though, specifically, is related to a number of considerations. The severity of your addiction, the amount of time you’ve been addicted, which substance you were addicted to and many more variables play into what Beacon will consider medically necessary and cover and for how long.
An intimate understanding of addiction forms the backbone of Beacon Health Options and their close working relationships with providers means you’ll be getting the right treatment, for the right time period.
The Affordable Care Act back in 2010 made substance abuse treatment an essential benefit but Beacon Health Options, being centered and squarely based on behavioral health and addiction treatment, has long considered that the case.
As with all insurers, Beacon insurance for drug rehabs is dependent on the specific plan you have.
In general, you can expect coverage for a wide range of services, including:
Beacon insurance for alcohol rehabs, as well as drug rehabs of course, also covers outpatient care like:
As mentioned previously, in addition to the specialty programs related to autism and depression offered, they also have a dedicated Opioid Management Program which is rather distinctive.
Seeing as how opioid use disorder is a chronic illness, they consider a chronic disease model of care that promotes community-based care coordination, medication-assisted treatment, and other recovery-oriented interventions the best form of treatment. Their comprehensive opioid management solution combines analytic, network, and clinical expertise to support providers in caring for members through every step of their recovery journey to long-term improved health.
As far as copays, coinsurance and deductibles go, they’ll all depend on your plan. Moreover, it’s again important to verify that the treatment center you’re considering is in Beacon’s network prior to you starting rehab because they won’t necessarily cover out-of-network facilities. Know before you go.
Beacon takes a data-driven approach to insurance so their services in behavioral health management are constantly improving. Aggregating critical member clinical and demographic information allows them to stratify at-risk members and conduct targeted outreach with employees as well as inform individual treatment planning.
