Discover how Elevance Health (formerly Anthem, Inc.) covers addiction treatment through various plans. Learn about benefits, in-network options, and holistic support.
Elevance Health was named Anthem, Inc. until 2022. They offer a variety of health plans, including Anthem Blue Cross and Blue Shield plans, in 14 states. They also have Wellpoint Medicare and Medicaid plans and additional affiliates. I am impressed with how Elevance works with its local communities to improve access to care and health equality.
One thing that’s really exciting is that Elevance supports holistic treatment options, which means that those types of treatment are more likely to get coverage from your plan. In 2020, the company announced that they had more than doubled the number of members receiving whole person therapies for opioid use disorder.
Also, Elevance plans provide access to the Bright Heart Health telehealth MAT program to make it easier to pair counseling with medication use. Getting both is essential if you want to lay the foundation for long term recovery.

Soberman’s Estate was everything I needed for my recovery. The staff, the program, physical activity and culinary experience were top notch and essential. The program is well designed and worked better than I expected. The staff is remarkable - professional, considerate and genuinely caring. My time there and being removed from alcohol for five weeks was everything I needed to remove my craving for alcohol. Soberman has changed my life in ways I never could have imagined. I feel confident, secure and grateful for my new life. I have reconnected with my family and friends. Thank you Soberman.

St Christopher was a wonderful experience for me to get sober, learn about Alcoholics Anonymous, and learn about the disease and about myself. The staff from the front office down were fantastic, before, during, and after treatment. I would recommend this place to anyone

I have been a professional interventionist since 2010. I was introduced to this program in 2012. I have been referring there since then. My clients have always had a positive experience and the clinical and support staff are the most responsive and knowledgeable. They want what’s best for the client and the family and have long term options. They do very well young adult males and most recently I referred a 69 year old man first time treatment. It was a family member and he’s doing very well and committed to 90 days of treatment. I can’t thank the clinical staff and administrators enough for the program they have created. Please contact me if you would like to know more. Thank you STC!!!

BEST PLACE EVER. I have tried various other doctors/clinics and none of them even begin to compare to this one. The staff here is absolutely amazing. I can’t even make a single complaint. Dr Son is the best as well. He explains everything and you truly feel like he understands you. I can proudly say this, this place saved my life. If you or someone you know needs help getting off opiates do it right the first time and come here. You won’t be disappointed. If you are specifically struggling with fentanyl please don’t waste your time with other ways. I have tried 6 other methods from lazer therapy to having the earpiece to suboxone. Methadone is the key to our current fentanyl crisis. This clinic makes recovery possible again!

This place is not your ordinary rehab facility. They go beyond your standard rehabilitation and literally "Elevate" your life to a new level you didn't think was ever possible before. The program is structured in a way that you desire to learn more and give more into the healing process. If you take the necessary steps and put your heart into the program you will come out with a newfound appreciation for life and all that surrounds you. Please take this step, as my husband did, to embrace your life and get the healing you deserve and owe yourself.

I think this is a wonderful rehab, the facilities are beautiful, the food is amazing (I have never even had food this good at a restaurant), and above all they have really helped my husband. Obviously anyone that first goes to rehab isn’t happy with their situation but in just two short months he was a changed person. The work they have them do on themselves got him to finally see why drugs and alcohol are no way of life. He’s finally sober and actually enjoying it! This rehab helped him so much he actually chose to stay LONGER, and I am for once excited for what the future can bring.

My experience here throughout my last few months has completely changed my whole outlook on life. Before I got here I thought my life was going towards the end. My body was failing and mental state was terrible. Every part of the program touches on every aspect of the addicts life. Now that I have finished the program and started living daily life with all of the gains I got throughout the program, failure isn’t an option. I know I can truly be happy sober now. I finally gained back the love and support from my life partner and best friend I always knew was still there. My mom also believes in me again which is so important to me. The possibilities and happiness are endless now. Thank you Elevate.

My experience at All In Solutions was excellent. A special shout out to all the staff. especially the Techs who were flexible and met all my housing needs. Let me not forget to give a heartfelt shout out to the Administration Assistant, Erica. Her friendly smile and personality was something to look forward to every morning. A special thanks to Chris B, the wise Guru of AA's Big Book. An extreme special thank you to the Alumni Coordinator, Lauren. for everything she did for me.

To say All In Solutions of Cherry Hill, N.J. saved my life would be a GROSS UNDERSTATEMENT. As would be any attempt to express my gratitude to their staff with mere words. After 33 straight years of drug & alcohol abuse, I would have never imagined myself making it through even the 1st few days of a recovery program, much less become a man who swears by the life changing process that comes only by properly working a 12 step program. In fact, I'd have laughed at you if you tried to tell me that it could cure my life long ailment. God Bless the entire staff at A.I.S. for patiently taking taking their time to make sure that I actually not only got it right, but got it right this 1st time. It takes more than what is ethically & professionally required of you to have such a profound effect on someone like me. Much, much more. But each & every staff member regularly went well above & beyond their call of duty where my recovery is concerned. Thank you, ALL OF YOU & God Bless you. Please keep doing what you do.

The facility was clean, the staff is helpful and friendly. The facility offers groups all day where they have activities and open discussions. They have a real life chef during the week and take out on the weekends. The facility also has snacks, ice cream, multiple breakfast foods, and more. A therapist is appointed to assist that clients see at least once a week. This was my first time in treatment, but several other clients told me that this was one of the best treatment centers they had been too. I highly recommend.

I’ve been to many detox residences and I have to admit that Boca Recovery Center is up there as one of the best I’ve been to. The staff is very nice and don’t treat you as just another number. Throughout my experience, I wanted to leave and they helped me realize that was a horrible idea. Today, I’m grateful that they stopped me from leaving and helped me make the decision to stay because life is gradually getting better. Thank you Boca Recovery Center.
P.S. A special shout out to Laura Bonczek because she really helped me throughout my time there by telling me what I needed to hear and not what I wanted to hear.

I couldn't think the staff enough for all that they done for me. I came here and went through the detox and after that they sent me to a recovery program that was on my own in an apartment and till this day I am still living sober thanks to them . I will never forget this place it was the best place that I could have ever picked out to go to for recovery and for my sobriety. The food is exceptionally great and convenient at your access at all times of the day and night anything you wanted so many snacks galore it was just a wonderful environment and I was truly blessed to have been a part of this program. So if you're seeking recovery I suggest and urge you to please give them a try . Thank you to all that is at the Boca recovery you all were exceptionally great

I had an all around great experience at Boca!
The meetings/groups are always on schedule and helped to establish a new daily routine. They rarely ever went off topic if at all. The therapists that led them are very knowledgeable and experienced. They actually care about the clients success and don’t just go through the motions and treat you like a number. They are very relatable in that several of them are former addicts and don’t just have a degree to preach about something they haven’t experienced first hand.
The meals and snack selection are excellent and very accommodating to anyone with food allergies or specific dietary needs/restrictions. There are plenty of healthy snack options as well as junk food for the sweet tooth.
The techs, nurses, and housekeeping teams are all very friendly and on point with anything that is asked of them.
The bedrooms are spacious and cozy with TVs. They even allow you to install your own streaming services in the bedrooms and common areas.
Overall for what we are there for the entire staff made it as fun, friendly and enjoyable as possible while still focusing on the seriousness of our recoveries!

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Elevance Health Cover Addiction Treatment?
In 2010, a law called the Affordable Care Act (ACA) passed. This law requires all long term health insurance plans to cover a specific list of essential health benefits. Both mental healthcare and addiction treatment are part of the list, so you can rely on your Elevance Health plan to help cover at least some of the cost of drug rehab.
How much is covered? The details vary from plan to plan, so it’s important to talk to the insurance company for specifics. One thing is certain though — the law requires mental health and addiction to be treated the same as any other health condition but some conditions and exceptions do apply. They can’t charge extra or have higher out of pocket costs for those programs compared to other care.
It’s important to understand your specific plan so you know what centers are considered in network. Also, you should ask if there are any out of network benefits, in case your preferred treatment location isn’t part of your plan.
What Are Elevance Plans?
Elevance uses several companies to offer health insurance. The most well known are the Anthem Blue Cross Blue Shield plans. Those are offered in 14 states: California, Colorado, Connecticut, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Maine, Missouri, Nevada, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Virginia, and Wisconsin.
Anthem plans might be offered as a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO), which costs less per month but requires you to use in network providers. Or, the plan could be a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) which gives you more medical options but also costs more per month. Other times the plan will be an Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO), which is in between the two, offering some flexibility and moderate cost.
If you have Medicare Advantage or Medicaid, you might have an Elevance Health affiliated plan through Wellpoint. Wellpoint used to be called Amerigroup. There are other Elevance affiliates as well, but they generally sell short term or catastrophic care only plans, which are not under the ACA and may not offer coverage for addiction treatment.
Does Elevance Health Cover Methadone & Suboxone (MAT)?
Most Elevance plans cover medication assisted treatment (MAT). MAT can be used during medical detox to manage withdrawal symptoms and it can also be used as a longer term treatment for those struggling with opioid or alcohol misuse.
MAT has been shown to help those struggling with substance use stay stable during treatment which lowers the chances of relapse and overdose.
Coverage for MAT must be verified for each individual health care plan. Talk to your doctor about medical necessity and get any preapproval or preauthorization you need before you start treatment.
What Inpatient Addiction Treatment Does Elevance Health Cover?
When it comes to inpatient care treatment plans commonly include 5 to 10 days of medical detox and 60 to 90 days of residential or inpatient treatment. Before you commit to a program you will want to verify coverage with your insurance company. For example you may need a referral or preauthorization before you start.
A medical detox program allows you to be medically monitored to help you get through the detox process. Medication and medical treatment can help with withdrawal symptoms which keeps the process safe and as comfortable as possible.
After detox patients start the recovery process by attending an inpatient or residential inpatient program. These rehabs allow you to focus on your recovery without any distractions from daily life. You will receive individual and group therapy along with holistic approaches which may include yoga and art therapy and meditation. There will also be recreation and other activities.
To maximize your chances of long term recovery, you will want to follow your inpatient or residential rehab with outpatient treatment that helps you reinforce and practice your new habits in your daily life.
What Outpatient Rehab Does Elevance Cover?
There are several types of outpatient treatment. As with all rehab programs you will want to verify your insurance and make sure you get any referrals or preauthorizations before you begin treatment.
A Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) is a full day program that provides more than 20 hours per week of treatment. It’s similar to inpatient care except that you go home or to a sober living facility outside of treatment.
Intensive Outpatient Treatment (IOP) is generally 3 days a week for about 9 hours of group or individual therapy along with other approaches. There may also be peer support and other activites.
Finally general outpatient programs may only require 1 to 3 hours per week. This can be individual therapy or group meetings. You may also be connected to a peer support group like a 12 step program and to other community resources.
How to Verify Coverage with Elevance Health?
Elevance offers a variety of insurance plans and they are primarily through Blue Cross and Blue Shield. To verify your coverage and ensure you have met all requirements for coverage there are a few different ways to get your plan details.
First you can contact your insurance company directly. You can look up the insurance customer service number on the back of the insurance card. Call them and ask how much coverage you have for rehab and what out of pocket costs you might have such as deductibles and copayments.
Another idea is to go online and log in to your account on the Elevance website. You’ll be able to view your coverage information and look for in network providers that offer the care you need.
Finally many treatment centers can help you verify your insurance. The center will know what insurance plans they accept and what kind of out of pocket costs you can expect. They should also let you know if your doctor needs to provide a referral or if you need to get a preauthorization.
Calls to any general helpline will be answered or returned by a paid advertiser.
By calling the helpline you agree to the terms of use. We do not receive any commission or fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a caller chooses. There is no obligation to enter treatment.
