Hometown Health Drug and Alcohol Rehab Insurance Coverage in Nevada

Yes, although the amount of coverage your Hometown Health plan offers will vary.² The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires all long-term health insurance plans to provide at least partial coverage for 10 essential health benefits.² One of these benefits is mental health and substance use disorder treatment.² This means that you can rely on your Hometown Health plan to provide full or partial coverage for detox, inpatient and outpatient rehab, and long-term residential treatment programs. Again, Hometown Health rehab coverage will vary depending on your plan, so it’s a good idea to verify your coverage before you commit to a program.

Insurance providers make agreements with specific doctors and specialists to provide care to their members at a lower price, which are commonly called “in-network” providers.³ When members see in-network providers, they often save money. When members go to an out-of-network provider, they may receive little or no coverage from the insurance company.³ Choosing a rehab center that is in-network Hometown Health coverage can help you save on out-of-pocket costs.

Health insurance plans focus on providing coverage for evidence-based care that’s medically necessary. Defining what’s necessary for you will be done by working closely with your doctor and creating a treatment plan. Some of the most common treatment options are:^4,5

• Detox: While not always necessary, detox can be an important first step in treatment for many people. During medically supervised detox, patients are monitored by medical professionals, which can help them more comfortably and safely go through the withdrawal process.
• Inpatient treatment: With inpatient treatment, patients live at a facility full-time and receive 24-hour intensive, structured care. Through a mix of therapeutic approaches, inpatient treatment helps patients learn how to live a substance-free life.
• Outpatient treatment: Outpatient treatment allows patients to live at home while attending treatment for several hours a week at a facility. This can be helpful for patients who need to continue to attend school or work.
• Aftercare: “Aftercare” is a term used to describe any type of ongoing treatment, such as 12-step meetings like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). When patients complete inpatient or outpatient treatment, an aftercare program can help them sustain their recovery.

Fortunately, Hometown Health insurance should provide at least partial coverage for mental health conditions, including co-occurring disorders, as the Affordable Care Act (ACA) includes both substance use and mental health treatment as essential health benefits.²

Around 50% of those who have substance use issues also have a mental health disorder, known as a co-occurring disorder.⁶ Research shows that patients who receive treatment for both a substance use disorder and a mental health disorder at the same time experience better outcomes than those who receive treatment for only one disorder.⁷

Your Hometown Health coverage may cover some or all of the cost of treatment, but coverage will vary depending on several factors, including:

• Your specific plan.
• The type of treatment you are seeking.
• How long you will remain involved in treatment.

It’s important to verify your health insurance coverage before committing to a treatment program. As previously mentioned, you can verify your explanation of benefits (EOB) online or call the phone number on the back of your insurance card and speak with a representative to find out the details of your specific health plan. Knowing what will be covered ahead of time can help you focus on recovery.

Even if you don’t have health insurance, or your Hometown Health plan won’t cover the full cost of treatment, paying for rehab is still possible.

Many rehab facilities offer payment plan options so you don’t have to pay for the entire cost of treatment upfront. Some also offer sliding scale plans, which adjust the cost of treatment based on your income and what you can realistically pay. Other ways you may be able to pay for rehab include:

• Financing.
• Fundraising.
• Grants.
• Loans.
• Scholarships.

What’s important is that you do not give up on treatment. Deciding to get help will always be a good investment in yourself and your future.
