Does Kaiser Permanente Hawaii Insurance Cover Addiction Treatment?

Yes, your Kaiser Permanente insurance should provide full or partial coverage for drug and alcohol addiction treatment at rehab in Hawaii or out of state.2

The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires major health insurance companies to provide coverage for 10 essential health benefits (EHB).2 Per the ACA, all plans must cover:3

  • Behavioral health treatment, including counseling and psychotherapy.
  • Inpatient services for behavioral and mental health.
  • Substance use disorder (SUD) treatment.

Your benefits will depend on the specific Kaiser Permanente plan you have.3 You can see what your plan covers, including behavioral health benefits, by reviewing your plan documents, visiting the Kaiser Permanente website, or contacting a representative for a detailed summary of benefits and coverage options.

What Does Kaiser Permanente Hawaii Cover?

In Hawaii, Kaiser Permanente offers comprehensive services, including hospital services, primary and specialty care, and prescription drug coverage.4 Members have access to 19 medical centers across the islands, and telehealth options for care by phone, email, or video.4 Services also include chronic disease management, preventive health services, and emergency and urgent care.5

Hawaii residents struggling with substance use disorder (SUD) can also get comprehensive treatment options through Kaiser Permanente.6

While SUD treatment looks different for everyone, it may include:7

  • Medical detox: During medical detox, your care team will work to help you through the withdrawal process as comfortably and safely as possible. This can help prepare you for ongoing treatment in an inpatient or outpatient rehab.
  • Inpatient rehab: During inpatient rehab, you’ll live at a rehab facility and receive structured care. This type of treatment can be a good option for those who are struggling with severe addictions or don’t have the support at home to begin the recovery process.
  • Outpatient rehab: Outpatient rehab services can take many forms. Some people attend outpatient rehab on a by-appointment basis. Others participate in partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) or intensive outpatient programs (IOPs), both of which offer many hours of support each week, allowing you to utilize many of the same therapeutic techniques used during inpatient treatment.
  • Aftercare: Your aftercare plan can help you stay on track after you complete a formal inpatient or outpatient program and may consist of therapy, 12-Step meetings, sober living, and more.

Your doctor or an addiction specialist will work with you to create a personalized treatment plan and determine the level of care for your needs. In addition to these formal levels of treatment, your care provider may also recommend that you utilize counseling, medication, Kaiser’s self-care apps, and other supports to help you maintain your recovery over time.

Can Kaiser Permanente Hawaii Cover Rehab in Another State?

Yes, if you have Kaiser Permanente in Hawaii, you can use your insurance to get care out of state.9 Kaiser Permanente primarily operates in specific regions, but members can access emergency and urgent care nationwide.9

You can also use your insurance to get planned or ongoing care outside Hawaii through Kaiser Permanente’s “Away from Home” program. This program allows eligible members to get care if they’re in another state that has a Kaiser Permanente facility. Members can also get assistance and referrals from local providers if they’re outside a Kaiser service area.9

Oftentimes, residents who can’t find a Kaiser Hawaii drug rehab or Kaiser Hawaii alcohol rehab or are looking for treatment out of state will look for California rehab centers. Located in Southern California, Laguna Treatment Center accepts Kaiser Permanente. Laguna Treatment Center offers a range of treatment services and is Orange County’s only licensed chemical dependency recovery hospital.
