God bless everyone in this facility! They saved my life. Before coming here I was hopeless and depressed from my alcoholism and saw no way out. I initially agreed to 21 days but completed 115 days after seeing how beneficial the work they were doing for me TRULY was. I’d recommend this to any and everyone seeking help. If you’re debating about this place, COME! Experience this for yourself.

The place is great but they don't do mat. I would have stayed long term but I've been on subs for 10+ years. When struggling to get sober one should not have to struggle with medication in order to receive treatment. This is my opinion. Other than that it's a great facility.

10/10 across the board. Everyone here is fully committed to helping guys get and stay sober and can speak from personal experience.
The staff, program, and experience is beyond anything I could have hoped for. I would recommend to anyone struggling with addiction with 0 reservations.
I am happy to have been given the tools needed for long term sobriety, but finding happiness, peace, and connection I’ve never had before is one of the most amazing and important experiences I’ve ever had.

Eagle Creek has been the absolute best opportunity of my life! It's been an amazing learning and rebuilding experience. They prepare you for the struggles of addiction and life, coping mechanisms, stress management, behavior therapy and so much more! All staff are helpful, engaging and understanding. It also helps as most of them have gone thru the program as well! Not to mention the food is better than most 5 star restaurants!!! I did 60 days but think 45 is the sweet spot for anyone struggling thru addiction and looking for a life changing experience and healthy environment! God Bless Eagle Creek!!!

Great place to go if you're sick and tired of how you're living life. Place is beautiful, the staff were all really cool, programming was extremely helpful without getting preachy about the God stuff. Most importantly, a lot of the time it was a legitimately fun experience, I laughed more there than I did the entire year prior to showing up. Only gripe I have is that the food was not great when it could have been. They were clearly squeezing the budget in that department and it showed. But don't let that stop you, you're there to get sober and this place can definitely help you with that

Counselor nodded out on me 😆 I like to believe he was on methadone or Suboxone but he literally asked me how long he was out when he came to. All while talking about super personal information... I've been there three times... Not since the 90s old location .. thank you Lord above..
Another time the guy had the exact same line "don't you want to go to the ocean and throw your girlfriend in it type of shit 😂" same guy ten years apart it was beyond memorable. But this place plants seeds that lead to a life of substance free Bliss!! The acupuncture in the AM and evening AA/NA Meetings meant everything to me.

Brittnay from Provive Wellness went over and beyond when I was desperate to find a help center for my son. She walked me through the entire intake process step by step. She made me feel comfortable and hopeful that my son would get the help and support that he needed. I had a lot of questions and concerns and she did all the leg work to help me through this situation. Brittnay is truly an amazing employee and a huge asset. She continues to reach out to me and my son along his journey making this difficult situation a lot easier.

Frequently Asked Questions
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.
Insurance benefits can differ widely, so it may help to compare how other insurers structure their addiction treatment coverage. You can learn more about rehab options to get a clearer sense of what’s typically included for detox, inpatient care, and outpatient services.
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.
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.
By calling the helpline you agree to the terms of use. We do not receive any commission or fee that is dependent upon which treatment provider a caller chooses. There is no obligation to enter treatment.
Calls to numbers on a specific treatment center listing will be routed to that treatment center. Calls to any general helpline could be forwarded to SAMHSA or a verified treatment provider.
