Does Insurance Cover Drug Detox?
In most cases, your private health insurance will cover some of your drug or alcohol detox stay. Detoxification from substances can be covered in part through your health care plan, however, the severity of the addiction and drugs needing to be detoxified will determine the level of care they will provide. Insurance companies will cover detox stays if deemed a medical necessity. Depending on the addiction and the types of medications or drugs used, it is mandatory to enter into a detoxification clinic before entering into an inpatient drug rehab to ensure a medically safe withdrawal. Detoxification from drugs or alcohol is often the first step in recovery and is a very important step to take. This is where healing begins and will set the foundation for your recovery so it is important to find the best detox facility to ensure a safe and painless withdrawal.
