Anthem In-Network Drug and Alcohol Coverage Options

Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield covers inpatient and outpatient levels of care including residential treatment, partial hospitalization programming, and medically assisted detox. Outpatient treatment for addiction is also covered in many cases. 

If you’ve purchased your Anthem plan through the marketplace, you likely have treatment coverage. Since the passing of the Affordable Care Act in 2010, insurance companies have been required to provide essential mental and behavioral health services to all members. They are required to provide the same level of behavioral healthcare treatment as they do for medical services. 

As a result, Anthem offers coverage for substance abuse treatment. However, what this means and the exact level of coverage will vary depending on the provider, your specific policy, and your deductible. In this article, I explain what the partnership coverage with Asana Recovery means.

Coverage for Drug Rehabilitation

As an in-network provider, Anthem Blue Cross covers Asana Reecovery’s inpatient and outpatient services for drug addiction. Anthem provides coverage for drug therapy as well as detox and other services related to treatment. However, the amount of coverage depends on your location and the specifics of your plan.

Most coverage is dependent on several factors, including the medical necessity of the treatment as determined by the referring physician to Anthem. Anthem then decides based on its guidelines. This includes weighing the medically necessary services to reduce future costs if the issue isn’t treated.

Other factors are considered, such as the legal ramifications of substance abuse, the type of substance involved, and the expected length of stay to ensure you are receiving the proper level of care for your needs.
