UniCare is an insurance company that’s a subsidiary of Elevance Health. Recently, they have paired down their offerings and eliminated most of their medical health insurance plans. They have one medical plan left in West Virginia, where they offer a managed Medicaid plan.
Most of their business now comes from working with employers to offer dental, vision, and employee assistance programs to their employees.

Indiana Center for Recovery is an amazing facility that helped me rediscover myself. Transitions between levels of care are a bit rough but the group facilitators are all excellent and if you stay the course and complete the full treatment you won't regret it.

The staff at ICFR are all very kind and helpful throughout the entire process of being at the recovery center. The facilities are very well maintained and clean. There does seem to be a lack of communication between staff members as there was often confusion when questions were answered. Overall I had a fantastic experience at IFCR and would recommend to anyone seeking treatment.

Place is great. I was in a pretty bad way coming in, and have been for a while, because t feel like I have a new outlook and perspective on sobriety. Staff are caring and helpful. Coursework is current and applicable and the accommodations are comfortable. If you come with an open mind and some willingness you can get what you need.

I personally highly recommend this program. I wish it had found me sooner. It is a safe and welcoming environment where you can discover how to heal and grow from your addiction. The schedule is flexible to your needs and each group addresses different topics that range from life goals to dealing with personal situations. If you apply yourself, this program will touch every aspect of your life positively and you will be able to enjoy life to its fullest.

I spent 35 days at ICFR Indy, and the experience was great. They provide an environment that promotes healthy recovery, and I feel my time there was well spent. The staff from therapists to techs all care and are very attentive. If you are from the Indianapolis area and are struggling, give them a call and get in ASAP!

Absolutely amazing place. They take such good care of you and make you feel so comfortable. They keep track of everything medically and psychological, great food, and I made a close freind with a staff member and some people in detox. The best thing is they don't force religion down your throat, which was a really big reason I never checked into rehab or AA. If you need help and are close by this is the place. (They drove two and a half hours to pick me up and take me home )

It's a great recovery program and the groups are very informative. All staff have been very nice and understanding. Love that it doesn't push religious beliefs. A bit more information being provided on what can and cannot be brought to the facility would be much appreciated. Outside of that, no complaints.
I stayed at Haven for 32 days to detox and work on improving my mental health. I couldn’t have asked for a more positive experience. The nursing staff, behavioral health techs, therapists, group facilitators, and everyone in between were all so very supportive and willing to work with me at my own pace. The building is clean, the food is INCREDIBLE, and the skies are so beautiful every day.

New Growth has made a huge difference in my life. The staff here is amazing, they truly care about your recovery and go above and beyond to support you. Tim’s groups specifically made a big impact on me and really helped me through my time in the program. I felt heard, supported, and encouraged every step of the way. I would absolutely refer anyone who’s looking for help to come here.
I have always been treated with respect and have had wonderful care at the Shepherd Center.
Everyone is very knowledgeable and listen to any concerns or questions I may have.
Having PPS it is important to me that most everyone is knowledgeable about Polio and PPS and how it can affect my life.
I love the accessibility at Shepherd and wish everyone would realize how important accessibility is to someone who uses a power chair and everyone who uses other tools for life for their disability.
I Hope and pray that one day everyone in our world will understand that accessibility is needed everywhere! Though we may have a disability we are people who love life, want to be respected and love to be independent as much as possible.
Have a wonderful day! Leslie

Frequently Asked Questions
Does UniCare Insurance Cover Addiction Treatment?
If you have a UniCare managed Medicaid in West Virginia, that plan covers the full spectrum of addiction treatment, including drug rehab and addiction treatment with medications. So, to answer the question, “Does UniCare Mountain Health Trust cover drug rehab?” the answer is, yes, they do.
If you have the UniCare employee assistance program or EAP, be aware that it’s not a medical plan. While it may cover some outpatient therapy visits, it usually covers no other types of addiction treatment.
What Types of Plans Does UniCare Offer?
While UniCare only offers one pure health plan, they do have other products that can help you address your mental health and move toward the treatment you need.
UniCare offers a comprehensive Employee Assistance Program. These programs aren’t medical insurance. They’re a benefit your employer may provide in addition to health insurance. As a result, they don’t cover things like alcohol and drug rehab, or medications that treat substance use disorders.
The purpose of this benefit is usually to connect you with resources that might help you in different areas of your life. These resources may include counseling sessions, legal help, financial help, and child or elder care assistance.
West Virginia’s Medicaid Program is called Mountain Health Trust. UniCare is one of the insurance providers that you can choose to manage your Mountain Health Trust plan. These plans are intended for people who have low income. To get a UniCare Mountain Health Trust plan, you first need to qualify for Medicaid through the West Virginia online human services portal.
UniCare Mountain Health Trust is an HMO plan. This means that you must get care from the providers in their network, otherwise they won’t pay for it—unless it’s an emergency. If you’re thinking of signing up for an HMO type plan like this one, it’s a good idea to verify that the providers you’re used to seeing are in their network.
You may also want to check that they have care available near to you so that you don’t have to travel too far to get to it. Fortunately, this plan is accredited by the NCQA, which provides assurance that they have enough coverage for services to meet the needs of their members—needs such as drug rehab.
UniCare also allows employers to offer vision benefits that include eye exams and access to major retail locations where employees can buy glasses or contacts. Members get discounts if they choose options that go above the allowance for frames or other materials.
Finally, UniCare provides life insurance and disability insurance plans for employers to offer their employees. This gives employees and their families financial support if unforeseen circumstances cause injury or even death.
What Does it Mean that UniCare Has NCQA Accreditation?
When a health insurance plan has NCQA accreditation, it means that they’ve been evaluated by a third party to ensure they meet certain standards. To evaluate a plan, they look at the overall quality of care that plan members get. They also drill down and look at a number of specific areas including behavioral health.
Additionally, they check on how satisfied plan members are with the plan. While it’s still a good idea to look at the network yourself, an accreditation from NCQA usually means the plan has done well in these important areas and can likely meet your needs.
Who Does UniCare Mountain Health Trust Serve?
As a managed Medicaid plan, UniCare Mountain Health Trust serves West Virginia residents who have a low income. For most people, low income means that your household income is no more than 138% of the federal poverty line.
Children and pregnant women can get Medicaid with higher household incomes. West Virginia doesn’t have a work requirement for Medicaid at the time of this writing.
Does UniCare Cover Mental Healthcare?
Medicaid is the single largest payer for mental health treatment. UniCare managed Medicaid in West Virginia also covers mental health treatments and treatment for co occurring mental health conditions. A co occurring condition is also called a dual diagnosis. This is the term used to describe when you simultaneously have symptoms of more than one condition. Treatment for dual diagnosis is specialized and mental health and addiction need to be treated together to achieve the best results.
Congress enacted several laws designed to ensure you have access to mental health treatment including the 2008 Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act and the 2010 Affordable Care Act. State administered Medicaid programs must follow these regulations.
However, each state can cover mental health services differently. Behavioral health services for mental health conditions can include counseling and psychotherapy which is also known as talk therapy. Treatments are conducted by trained mental health professionals such as psychologists and therapists along with counselors and clinical social workers.
UniCare also has an employee assistance program product. EAPs are purchased by employers and provide care at no cost to employees. An EAP helps maintain a healthy work environment. This benefits you and your employer.
An EAP can help you address various issues including legal concerns and financial issues and even help with aging parents. They also offer support for mental health such as stress and anxiety along with other mental health conditions. The EAP can help you with life events and relationship issues along with traumatic events and addiction. You have access to trained representatives 24/7/365. These are all mental health stressors that can increase the potential for drug or alcohol addiction.
The UniCare EAP program also offers resources to help with tobacco use and adoption. They have resources for education and identity theft recovery. Legal and financial consultations can help you with budgeting and debt along with credit counseling and estate planning. They offer education on their website about credit monitoring and workplace issues.
What Types of Inpatient Rehab Does UniCare’s Medicaid Plan Cover?
Under UniCare managed Medicaid services you have access to inpatient substance use disorder treatment. You don’t need a referral but care must be medically necessary and you might need preauthorizaton. Your physician can help create a treatment plan for inpatient or residential care to address your substance use disorder. This plan is an integral part of receiving insurance approval for the care you need.
Medical detoxification and residential care can help lay the foundation for long term recovery. Medical detoxification allows you to be supported through the detox process with FDA approved medications and other treatment to reduce withdrawal symptoms. This allows you to detox safely and as comfortably as possible so you can start fresh in rehab.
In residential treatment you’ll be able to focus entirely on your recovery without outside distractions. Customized treatment plans typically include evidence based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy or motivational interviewing. You may also receive individual and group counseling and peer recovery support services. These approaches help identify addiction triggers and change negative thought patterns. Your thoughts create emotions and feelings which often drive actions.
By changing your negative thought patterns you can change your actions and reduce the potential for relapse. Changing negative thought patterns also helps improve decision making and increases emotional regulation. Each of these steps lays a strong foundation for you to achieve sobriety and sustainable recovery.
What Types of Outpatient Addiction Treatment Does UniCare’s Medicaid Plan Cover?
There are several types of outpatient addiction treatment that UniCare Medicaid plan covers. However, you might have to get prior authorization before being admitted into an outpatient program even if you transition from residential to outpatient at the same facility.
Outpatient care allows you to live at home or in sober living while attending treatment during the day. There are several different levels of outpatient rehab.
A partial hospitalization program provides a highly structured and intensive outpatient treatment. These programs usually provide you with the same level of treatment as you received as an inpatient, but you can go home in the evening. A partial hospitalization program may be the first step in your treatment or it may be used as a transition out of residential care and into the community.
An intensive outpatient program is a step down from a partial hospitalization program. You receive therapy for several hours each week, which generally includes individual and group and even family therapy sessions. You continue to receive evidence based treatments but have greater flexibility in your schedule. Some treatment centers offer IOPs at different times of day so you can accommodate work or school obligations.
A general outpatient treatment program typically includes therapy once or twice a week and may also include group therapy and family therapy sessions. These outpatient programs often include plans for an aftercare program which continues to provide you with support in group and individual settings.
Aftercare programs may or may not be administered by the treatment center, but are usually developed as part of your discharge plan. Your aftercare program is developed depending on your needs and may include community support meetings and alumni programs along with medication management and family and individual therapies.
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.
