Does AmeriHealth Cover Drug and Alcohol Rehab?
Most AmeriHealth plans will cover at least some addiction treatment in accordance with the 2010 Affordable Care Act (ACA). However, the amount each plan carries and the requirements to ensure coverage applies will vary from plan to plan. That means it’s important to check the details of your insurance before you commit to rehab.
Also all insurance plans will focus on covering medically necessary care. Working with your doctor to get a treatment plan based on your needs will help you get coverage for the addiction treatment that’s appropriate for your situation.

Beyond anything I could ever expect. From admission to aftercare this facility is the best there is (and I have been a few places). If you have ever had a bad experience elsewhere.. then come here. I myself have been to a lux rehab..but it didn't have the program they provided here.

White Sands is an amazing facility. i had a life changing experience while going through their detox and rehab program. From the minute I checked in until the minute I checked out, I was treated with grace and dignity. The staff are amazing from the sweet ladies who clean our rooms…to the techs….the therapists….medical doctors….psychiatric doctors…case managers…the cafe ladies….the food was delicious…everyone was amazing. If you find yourself needing some help, this is the place for you. I had housemates from other States, because White Sands is so amazing.
Making the decision to go to Beachway was, by far, the most positive and impactful experience of my life. The entire staff was incredible, as was the community as a whole. I felt safe, seen, and supported throughout my stay, and even now, as I continue my healing journey at home. I was completely set up for success in my healing journey thanks to Beachway, and I will forever be grateful.

My experience at Beachway was a 100/10. The life skills I learned are priceless and that’s putting it lightly. Beachway was the third treatment center I had been to, following the sudden loss of a loved one. I had prior sobriety before beachway and was convinced that I was only there because of a death, and that that was why I was spiraling. The staff at Beachway saw I needed much more help than that. They all knew before I did that if that death didn’t happen, I probably wouldn’t have stayed sober anyway. There was still much more therapy to be done, and more to learn.
The staff took a genuine care in doing so, and looking back at their clinical process they are nothing short of a power house of a team. I never felt so cared for as a human being by people that just met me. The staff quickly became my family, cheering me on while also taking it extremely serious. They are unapologetically honest, which in my experience is the #1 thing needed in recovery. Many of the things they said to me during my time there still stick with me (a year later) and help me navigate life!
I tell anyone that has a loved one with Substance abuse or mental health issues about beachway.
There is no other place like it🤍

I owe Beachway my life for sure. I won’t lie and say that I loved every minute of it because I didn’t. A lot of it was very painful, because confronting inner demons is painful. It was a lot of group therapy (especially given how afraid of people I was going in), but they truly helped me gain sobriety and face down my trauma. And they put up with a lot of my crazy behavior while I was going through withdrawals in detox. Like any rehab, you’ll get out of it what you put into it. Surrender to the process for best results. Rehab isn’t a magic wand that makes problems vanish. Rehab gave me the opportunity to accept the ways in which I cause my own suffering instead of blaming everyone around me, while surrounded by professionals who prevented me from hurting myself while my dried out, and helped me identify the underlying causes of my addiction. It will be tough. It will be scary. It will be worth it. I wish I’d gone sooner. The staff there are wonderful and don’t get enough credit. Thank you Beachway.
Celebrities in recovery lol love this place so much. They helped me a lot with getting going in the right direction and what to pursue out of life. I was able to surrender my past and move on from my old ways through their programming.

Scottsdale Recovery has changed my life. If you or someone you know needs detox and/or treatment. This is the place. The staff is strategically handpicked by professionals; peers who have been through addiction and have come out the other end. The resources and services they provide are phenomenal, I would highly recommend SRC a million times over.
From day 1 to graduation, they guided me through, to a complete life changing transformation.

I just hit 3 years sober. This was the detox center that helped me. Just overall an amazing place with incredible staff. If I could give 10/ 5 stars I would. Absolutely PERFECT place to detox at.
I’m sharing my experience about someone close to me who completed Tree House Recovery’s five-month program in Costa Mesa through the partial hospitalization track.
From the start, Adam and Matt showed up with care, heart, and a steady light. My experience with the team was a blessing. The way they came together to support my friend—even at the very beginning—held nothing short of compassion and love. It was truly something special.
Tree House is a brotherhood. It goes deep and focuses on giving a real experience - not a curated, perfect, or cookie-cutter one. It gives the people who go through it the strength to stand up and get through real life when they leave. It highlights your strength, gives you the structure to build it into who you are, and keeps reminding you of it. They provide tools, support, and, beyond that, an environment where learning happens, beliefs are tested and strengthened, and new identities are allowed take root.
It's physiology and psychology, forged together.
And if you’re asking the question, “Does it last?”; In my experience, it grows. It takes the reins and leads. Even as someone standing on the sidelines, I haven’t just learned from this journey—I’ve been inspired by the person who walked it. This program isn’t a finish line; it’s a whole new game, a wider foundation—something that keeps inviting you to become more of who you are. And it is literally a life-saver.
I’m grateful for Tree House Recovery—and especially for Adam and Matt—for showing up and lighting the way. If you’re ready to believe that change is worth it, take the first step. They’ll have your back for the rest.

Treehouse Recovery and the staff members are all really great people that care about your sobriety as much as they care about their own and take the role of guiding you into the right direction very seriously. Being apart of this program as changed my life for the better and I found not only a sense of happiness I have never felt before but I also found a sense of purpose and a strong brotherhood within this community of guys I went through this experience with. My outlook on life has completely changed for the better and I open my eyes in the morning thanking God I have another day to be the best person I could be. I am able to face challenges head on and be able to tackle them down without the thought of escaping reality and picking up that bottle. This experience I went through with the people I could now call lifelong friends with has been one of the best chapters of my journey I've been through so far. The good, the bad, the ugly; it was all worth wild. Thank you Justin, Vechi, Matt and everyone involved that saved my life! This book isn’t over yet. Let’s see where this new version of myself takes me.

I highly recommend the TREEHOUSE RECOVERY Program in Costa Mesa. Their comprehensive approach to drug addiction treatment is commendable. The program addresses the mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual components of your loved one, thereby focusing on the underlying causes of the addiction, rather than solely on ending the substance use. I believe this approach significantly reduces the risk of relapse. The male-only environment is a key factor in fostering focus and promoting successful outcomes.
My son successfully completed the five-month program and graduated. We are thrilled with the results! His physical and spiritual well-being have been significantly restored. Prior to his enrollment at Treehouse of Costa Mesa, I feared that I would lose him forever. He was at “the bottom” and was ready.
The program Is demanding and emphasizes accountability.
The parents, spouses, or family members have an optional video group meeting with other family members every week that helps immensely.
My son is 9+ months clean, and counting. He has a job and is on his feet again. He says that he’s a better man than he has ever been. I honestly don’t believe a different drug treatment program would have been as successful as the Treehouse Recovery Program for addiction.
I could say a million things, but what I will say is this place saved my life. They really care. They get to the root of the problem, they don’t do a quick band aid fix. When I first arrived from Georgia I only intended to stay for residential but I went to php and graduated and I am now in sober living. I am truly thriving. My clinician through treatment was Shifra and no words could describe the role she played in my treatment. I never questioned not once if she cared. She is amazing, along with all the staff they know you by name and they love you. When I arrived I really felt like I had no soul and I wasn’t sure anything would help, but I took suggestions and I am still taking them. I am in the sober living part of first step and I have close to 5 months sober. A true miracle. I LOVE FIRST STEP AND EVERYTHING it stands for.

I was scared at first with the unknown of treatment. I felt the care th staff has, even Gus. I learned a lot from his groups. My clinician, Mrs. Deborah, was amazing! She knew what I needed and made sure everyone was taken care of with any issues. I enjoyed my roommates had a blast just hanging out and talking. I couldn’t have asked for a better place. I’m over 5 months sober and can’t wait for my year anniversary because I want to be apart of this program and help others. I would love to build a career here and that’s my goal. Highly recommend!!

First step saved my life. I can't begin to express my gratitude for this program ☺️
RCA Westminister has a 30 day program that literally has saved my life.This coming from a guy that went there thinking I would be there for a week. From the staff ( amazing ), to the facility and the lifelong friends I have met. The program set me up with a solid foundation of recovery. I am now a proud member of their Alumni Association. I stay connected on a daily basis with my lifelong RCA friends. And yes I took yoga for the first time in my life! 😄👍…Such a great place ! Save your life and spend the 30 days !

If I could, I would give the company zero stars. The only reason I’m giving five stars is for the incredible staff who work here. They are caring, hardworking, and the only reason this place runs at all. Sadly, the employer itself is terrible, and it’s unfortunate that such amazing employees have to deal with such poor management.
Great place! Thanks to all the staff for all the help and support !

The moment I walked in I felt welcome and never neglected. From the Program director, to the nurses and techs. Every person in this program will treat you like family. I also got everything I ever needed when I needed. I couldn’t have gone to a better place. I got all the support I needed and more everyday. I recommend this place to everyone looking for a place to change their life and future for the best. Thank you Laguna view detox and everyone apart of this wonderful organization.

Awesome place with awesome people! I truly felt like every staff member cared about me and my recovery journey every day. Justin the case manager always had an open door to talk when I needed. Karen the program director and David the operations director helping me get paperwork filled out as painlessly as possible. Jeramiah, Lisa, Winnie, Jessie, and Tony on the nursing staff always ready with a smile and positive attitude. JJ, Lane, and Isabel, the techs that put up with me daily with a smile on their face no matter what I did. I can't recommend Laguna View Detox enough. If you're ready to start your recovery journey I can't think of anywhere else better!
Unfortunately, I have been to a lot of treatment centers. No one does it like Simple Path Recovery. The love, support, and care you receive there you won’t find at other facilities. I found stability, peace, and lifelong friends after struggling with opiates for almost 10 years. I was shown how to learn from my mistakes and appreciate them, but to stop holding on to them. The learning and care does not stop after clinical hours. The techs, staff, and other women in the program will teach you more than you ever could have known. You become a family! The tools and coping skills that I developed at Simple path saved my life. I truly believe this place and the people here are a Godsend!! If you are even just thinking about going to treatment I highly suggest reaching out to Simple Path, they WILL take care of you

Frequently Asked Questions
What Are AmeriHealth Plans?
AmeriHealth offers multiple plans through their family of companies. This includes individual and family plans along with Medicare options and Medicaid.
You can get individual and family plans through your employer or in the Insurance Marketplace in New Jersey or Delaware or Florida. There are also Marketplace options in North and South Carolina. If you get your insurance through the Marketplace your plan is likely to be a Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) or Exclusive Provider Organization (EPO) plan. With an HMO you will have a doctor who serves as your primary care physician (PCP). Your PCP will give you referrals to specialists within the provider network and help with any needed prior authorizations. An EPO doesn’t require you to get a referral to see a specialist like an addiction counselor or therapist. Both HMOs and EPOs only cover in network providers unless there’s an emergency or need for urgent care.
AmeriHealth offers Medicare Advantage plans in New Jersey as well. Medicare Advantage is a full replacement plan for Original Medicare. It covers the same things as Original Medicare but often has additional benefits. The AmeriHealth Advantage plan includes routine dental and vision care along with hearing coverage and virtual medical care. AmeriHealth’s Advantage plan is a Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) which means you can see out of network providers although you’ll pay quite a bit more out of pocket. You can also see in network specialists without a referral.
AmeriHealth Caritas offers Medicaid plans and Dual Eligible Medicare Medicaid plans in a variety of states. Medicaid coverage is determined by the state but you will have access to a wide variety of care which includes addiction treatment. You will need to choose medical providers that accept your state’s Medicaid plan.
What Inpatient Addiction Treatment Does AmeriHealth Cover?
Most AmeriHealth plans cover inpatient care as required by the Affordable Care Act. Since insurance focuses on medically necessary treatments getting a treatment plan from your doctor is essential.
For example, the ASAM assessment evaluates the patient’s needs and obstacles along with resources and support system. This information helps decide the right level of addiction care whether that’s inpatient treatment or some level of outpatient rehab.
Inpatient care usually begins with medical detox and is followed by a stay of about 3 to 4 weeks in a care center. This is typically the most intensive level of rehabilitation available.
What Outpatient Rehab Does AmeriHealth Cover?
Outpatient rehab care is a form of addiction treatment that allows patients to continue living at home while attending rehab for multiple hours a week at treatment facility.
These are the three main types of outpatient care:
Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)
Intensive Outpatient (IOP)
General Outpatient
PHP is the most intense type of outpatient care and is also known as day treatment because you’re in rehab all day although you go home in the evenings. IOP is next and requires around 9 hours of treatment each week divided across three days. You can often choose morning or evening sessions to better accommodate your work or school schedule.
General outpatient is the least intensive and meets once or twice a week. The biggest difference between all forms of outpatient and inpatient care is that you can continue living at home during outpatient rehab.
Does AmeriHealth Cover Methadone & Suboxone (MAT)?
Medication assisted treatment (MAT) is often an essential part of addiction recovery. Many AmeriHealth plans cover MAT under behavioral health services.
MAT is commonly used during detox to manage withdrawal symptoms which helps you stay safe and as comfortable as possible during the process. It can also be used as an ongoing treatment of opioid and alcohol use disorders.
Methadone is a long acting full opioid agonist that works on the same receptors as opioids but doesn’t produce a high. Suboxone works similarly to methadone — acting on the same receptors — but it isn’t as strong.
MAT helps you manage cravings and avoid relapse during treatment while you’re learning new skills and mindsets. As you get stronger in recovery you can wean off the medication support and live a fully substance free life.
Does AmeriHealth Cover Other Mental Healthcare?
Most plans provide some level of coverage for mental health treatment thanks to the ACA. However it’s always a good idea to check your specific plan to confirm what’s covered. Mental health treatment may include counseling and crisis support along with and care for co occurring disorders.
When someone is diagnosed with both addiction and another mental health issue it’s called a co occurring disorder. This is common in addiction treatment and should be addressed simultaneously to support successful long term recovery.
Can I Travel Out of State For Treatment With AmeriHealth?
It depends on your exact AmeriHealth plan and whether you can travel out of state. Many plans require that patients stay in a defined provider network unless they need emergency care.
Some plans include coverage for care outside the network but you’ll pay far more for copayments and deductibles. For example the Medicare PPO plan available in New Jersey offers out of network care but it’s much more expensive.
In general staying within your state and your provider network is better to maximize your insurance coverage and reduce costs.
How to Verify Coverage With AmeriHealth
If you need to verify your coverage with AmeriHealth you can either call their customer service number or log into your online member account. This will give you coverage information and help you find in network providers.
Another option is to ask the treatment center you’re considering if they accept your specific plan. Make sure you verify coverage using your exact plan name and not just “AmeriHealth” since they offer a range of plans with varying levels of coverage.
