Rehab Programs Covered by Unicare Insurance
Unicare recognizes the role rehab care plays in overall well-being, and offers a range of programs and services that may be covered under your plan:
Day Treatment (PHP)
Day treatment is a structured program providing intensive, short-term care for people who need significant therapy and support but not 24-hour inpatient care. Clients attend therapy and counseling during the day and return home in the evenings. Unicare typically covers day treatment as part of its addiction benefits, though coverage specifics vary by policy.
Evening Treatment (IOP)
Evening treatment, also called an intensive outpatient program, provides counseling and therapy several times a week while you continue living at home. It's for people who don't need round-the-clock care but benefit from a higher level of support than standard outpatient. Unicare typically covers evening treatment as part of its addiction coverage, subject to your specific plan.
Outpatient Programs
An outpatient program is a flexible option that includes counseling and therapy while you continue living at home, offering greater independence for people with less severe addiction issues. Unicare generally includes outpatient programs as part of its addiction treatment coverage, with the specifics depending on your plan.
What Substance Use Disorders Does Unicare Help Cover?
Coverage details vary by individual policy, but Unicare plans generally support treatment for the same range of substance use disorders we treat at GBAC, includingalcohol addiction, opioid addiction,cocaine addiction, benzodiazepine addiction, and prescription drug misuse. Review your policy or call us to confirm what your specific plan covers.
Does Unicare Cover Treatment for Co-Occurring Disorders?
Unicare frequently covers treatment for co-occurring disorders, a specialized approach for people managing both a substance use disorder and a mental health condition, so both can be addressed at the same time for better outcomes. Coverage details vary by plan; review your policy or contact Unicare directly to confirm the extent of coverage and any requirements or limitations.
How Much Does Unicare Cover for Rehab?
Cost depends on your specific plan, location, and the type and duration of treatment. Unicare plans typically cover a portion of rehab costs, but you may still have copayments, deductibles, or other out-of-pocket expenses, and some plans limit the number of covered days or visits. Accessing treatment is what matters most, regardless of cost; if you or a loved one is considering care, we're here to help you access it.
