Does Aetna Cover Inpatient Treatment for Mental Health?
Yes, Aetna typically partially or fully covers inpatient treatment for qualifying mental health conditions.2 Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA), all major insurance providers, including Aetna, are required to offer coverage for mental health treatment, including substance use disorder (SUD).3
This means inpatient mental health rehab (a level of care where individuals live at the facility and receive 24/7 support) is often at least partially covered by your Aetna plan.
