Anthem is a Blue Cross Blue Shield licensee, and in Oklahoma, the Blue Cross Blue Shield entity is Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Oklahoma. Under the Affordable Care Act, substance abuse treatment is considered one of ten essential health benefits—which means most Anthem plans cover at least part of addiction treatment.
That said, how much is covered depends entirely on your specific plan. Here’s what Anthem plans often help pay for, based on South Coast Behavioral Health’s Anthem insurance for rehab information:
- Medical detox: Many Anthem plans include coverage for medically supervised detox.
- Residential inpatient treatment: Generally covered at least in part.
- Partial hospitalization (PHP) and intensive outpatient (IOP): Often covered for those who meet the requirements.
- Medication-assisted treatment (MAT): FDA-approved medications for alcohol and opioid use disorder are commonly covered.
- Mental health services: Counseling, therapy, and medication management are included in many plans.
A few things worth confirming before you start:
- Referrals: Most Anthem plans don’t require a referral to see a specialist, but some do. It’s worth checking.
- Pre-authorization: Certain levels of care, like PHP or specific medications, may need prior approval. Knowing this early helps avoid surprises.
- Plan tier: Anthem plans fall into Bronze, Silver, Gold, and Platinum tiers, each with different deductibles and out-of-pocket costs.
You don’t have to untangle any of this alone. When you verify your benefits, the admissions team reviews these details for you and explains exactly what your plan includes.
