Some policies cover more costs than others. It is also dependent upon what type of treatment you enroll in. We have a team of specialists that are experts in reviewing different insurance policies and plans. We’ll make sure you get the most out of your benefits regardless of your plan.

Humana Policies Work for Detox At Addiction Treatment Centers
The first challenge one usually has to overcome with addiction is the detox process. Detoxing is when you rid yourself of the substance you’ve been using through medical supervision. After using a specific substance for a long time, your body becomes dependent on it. Stopping cold-turkey can lead to a variety of health complications, some even fatal. That’s why it’s so important to make sure you do this at a specialized facility, such as ours. Whether you’re struggling with alcoholism, opioid addiction or cocaine abuse – withdrawal symptoms can be intense.
Withdrawal symptoms are dependent upon a variety of factors. This can include how long somebody has been using the drug and how much of it they used each time. Some common symptoms can include:
- Fatigue
- Depression
- Headaches
- Anxiety
- Seizures
- Irritability
- Cognitive impairment
Our detox program offers people the opportunity to end substance use in a secure and comfortable manner.
Humana Covers Inpatient and Outpatient Treatment
Humana’s policies cover both inpatient and outpatient treatment depending on your plan. Inpatient rehabilitation, otherwise known as residential treatment, requires living at the facility during treatment. Inpatient rehab offers around-the-clock care under a medically trained staff. On the other hand, outpatient treatment is a more flexible option. Outpatient treatment often works for those who have obligations outside of treatment. This can include caring for a child or a job you cannot miss.
You may favor one treatment over the other, however we like to make sure to discuss the pros and cons of each option. Sometimes individuals may want one, but need the other. We pride ourselves in transparency and want to have an open discussion with you or your loved one. Overcoming addiction is not a one-size-fits-all process. After discussing the treatment options that work best with your plan, we’ll come to a decision together. Since each plan varies, we urge you to call us today and find out more about how Humana Insurance can help you.
Costs and Services at Inpatient Rehab
As mentioned earlier, insurance terms can be a little confusing. However, we assure you it’s nothing too complicated once you become acquainted with them. Although we’ll take care of all the details for you, we want you to be informed. Whether it’s you or a loved one going through addiction, the more you know the better.
Premium
Your health insurance plan premium is the payment you make to your health insurance company that allows your coverage to function.
Out-of-Pocket Maximum
Within a plan year, this is the largest sum that you have to pay for covered services. First, you have to spend this amount on deductibles, copayments, and coinsurance. Once this is taken care of, your health plan will account for the rest of your covered benefits costs. The out-of-pocket limit doesn’t incorporate your monthly premiums.
Policy Effective Date
Your policy-effective date is when you can begin to access your benefits. Open enrollment period is generally a set amount of time that takes place once a year, or during a specific enrollment period. After official enrollment, it typically happens within a few weeks or months.
Deductible
This is the amount you pay for covered health care services in a given plan year before when your insurance will start to pay for them. For example, let’s say you have a $2,000 deductible. In this case, you pay the first $2,000 of covered services yourself.
After you pay your deductible, Humana will generally cover the remaining costs.
Copayment
In order to receive a specific medical service or supply, this is the cost that you’ll have to pay before your health insurance takes care of the rest. For example, your health insurance plan may require a $15 copayment for pharmaceutical medicine.
Humana Coverage for Mental Health Treatment
Humana Insurance prioritizes mental health treatment as well as the physical aspect of recovery. This is crucial because when it comes to addiction, both go hand in hand. This is referred to as dual diagnosis. Dual diagnosis is a powerful part of treatment. Addiction often has underlying mental and emotional roots. When you get to the bottom of those roots, the road to recovery becomes a lot smoother. Through Humana Behavioral Health, Humana helps those struggling with mental illness too. If you have a traditional Humana HMO plan, you’ll find that there’s coverage for mental health treatment.
