Humana Addiction Treatment Coverage

Humana offers individual, family, and group insurances plan. The company’s services also include vision, dental, and pharmacy coverage, as well as plans for recipients of Medicare and Medicaid.

Several types of behavioral health services are covered by Humana, including addiction treatment. The types of addiction treatment that are covered and the amount Humana may pay for these services can vary depending on the specifics of each person’s plan. 

If you’re unsure about what your policy does and does not cover, a member of the Sanctuary Treatment Center admissions team can provide you with the details you need. We understand that dealing with insurance matters can be a source of frustration, especially when you’re trying to find appropriate care for yourself or a member of your family. With your permission, we can contact Humana directly to confirm your coverage and verify your benefits. 

Humana can cover addiction treatment for clients who participate in detoxification, inpatient treatment, and/or outpatient rehab. Depending on your specific needs and goals, you may receive treatment at one, two, or all three of these levels:

• Detoxification: This is a short-term program for people who need professional help to get through withdrawal. During detox, you may receive medication and therapeutic support to help you manage any distress you experience. The professionals who staff our detox program can also ensure that your health is not jeopardized by any withdrawal symptoms. 
• Inpatient treatment: At the inpatient level, you will live at our treatment center. Your days will be filled with a structured variety of evidence-based therapies and related support services. Your daily schedule will also include time to enjoy nutritious meals, participate in recreational activities, and simply relax and reflect on the progress you’ve made.
• Outpatient rehab: Our outpatient programming includes a few hours of daily care a few days per week. This level of care balances structured clinical services with ample time for independent living. Many people step down to our outpatient rehab for continued support after they complete our inpatient program. Others begin their treatment at the outpatient level.  

Every type of substance use disorder (which is the clinical term for addiction) should be included in Humana addiction treatment coverage. Common types of addiction that people receive care for at our center in Los Angeles include:

• Alcohol addiction (alcoholism)
• Addictions to heroin and other opioids
• Addictions to opioid-based prescription painkillers
• Addictions to benzodiazepines
• Addictions to cocaine, methamphetamine, and other stimulants
• Cannabis addiction, which is also often called marijuana addiction

If you have developed an addiction to a drug that is not listed above, that doesn’t mean you cannot receive treatment at Sanctuary Treatment Center. This list is included here to provide examples of some of the more common forms of addiction that we treat. To get additional details about addiction treatment at our center, please feel free to contact us at your convenience.

Yes, Humana health insurance policies include coverage for some types of mental health care. 

The scope of Humana’s mental health coverage can vary from plan to plan. But federal laws such as the Affordable Care Act and the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) require major insurance companies to cover mental health and addiction treatment on an equitable level with their coverage of medical care and surgical procedures.

This is important for people who use Humana addiction treatment coverage, because many people who become addicted to alcohol and other drugs are also living with a mental health disorder. If this describes your situation, it is essential to find a provider such as Sanctuary Treatment Center where you can receive comprehensive care that addresses both disorders.

When you use Humana insurance at Sanctuary Treatment Center, the mental health component of your care may include services such as the following:

• Individual therapy
• Family therapy
• Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT)
• Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT)
• Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) therapy
• Other forms of trauma therapy
• Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy
• Art and music therapy
• Neurofeedback

A member of our team will confirm the extent of your coverage with Humana before you receive any of these services. If your insurance does not cover a particular therapy or service, we will inform you of this prior to starting treatment. As we have mentioned, Humana addiction treatment and mental health coverage can vary from policy to policy.
