What To Expect From Anthem for Rehab
In many cases, Anthem does cover the cost of rehab, but the insured person may be responsible for meeting some out of pocket expenses, such as copays or coinsurance costs. There may also be deductible requirements that need to be met by the policyholder. All of these expenses can vary based on the specific plan a person has, as well as the state where he or she lives. To find these requirements out, the policyholder should review the details of their particular Anthem plan.
There are also many circumstances where a review and pre-authorization are required for the cost of an inpatient rehab stay to be covered by Anthem, so people with this insurance should always check into pre-authorization requirements before they make any other plans for rehab or substance abuse treatment.
It’s the role of Anthem’s dedicated Behavioral Health Care Mangers to coordinate with drug addiction treatment facilities and with policyholders to determine whether or not preauthorization can be obtained.
Precertification requirements vary as well. In most cases, preauthorization is required for all inpatient admissions, intensive outpatient programs, residential care and partial hospitalization programs that fall under the category of mental health and substance abuse.
Ultimately, the best course of action, if you’re wondering what to expect from Anthem for Rehab, is both to read your summary of covered benefits, and also contact a care coordinator or representative from the insurance company to find out options that pertain to you.
