Top Reasons Holidays Are the Best Time for Rehab

Unused Insurance Coverage at The End of the Year

Each year, health insurance deductibles reset. The timing depends on the individual plan details but frequently happens after the new year. If you have met your deductible for the year, insurance usually starts to kick in for services and treatments covered by your insurance plan. Substance abuse treatments such as inpatient rehab, may be partially covered by insurance after your deductible is met. If that is the case, the holiday season may be the perfect time to attend treatment as you may have already met your deductible and out-of-pocket costs, thereby potentially reducing the cost of rehab.

Paid Time Off During the Holidays
