Aetna Insurance Coverage for Drug & Alcohol Rehab Treatment

Types of Aetna Insurance Plans

Aetna offers open-access plans, copay only plans, and high-deductible plans.³

• Open-access plans allow you to choose your doctors; they don’t require a referral, and they don’t require a primary care physician.
• Copay-only plans will guarantee that your costs after paying your deductible are only copays, with primary care physician visits and generic drugs covered before you hit your deductible.
• High-deductible plans offer preventative care services before the deductible is met, sometimes coverage through a primary care physician before the deductible is met (with copay), and the option of a health savings account. To view your plan’s details, you can log into the member website.

Aetna offers many local plans supported by the national network of providers to better support patients at the community level. For example, at American Addiction Centers, our facilities frequently provide care for patients of Schaller Anderson Aetna Better Health networks of New York⁴ and Ohio.⁵

American Addiction Centers strives to provide you with the most updated information on each carriers’ addiction insurance coverage but policy changes and errors do occur. Please check with your insurance carrier directly to confirm coverage levels.
