AmeriHealth was established in 1994 and originally offered employer plans in certain parts of Pennsylvania. They expanded and today cover all of New Jersey and parts of Pennsylvania with individual and family plans along with employer plans and Medicare options.

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.

White sands is a great treatment center. Residential, php and especially the IOP. Patty, asheley,ish,jeff and lacey are the best IOP staff i have ever come across. If it wasn't for them my recovery would be no place. I owe them my life. And if you give yourself a chance and go there, I guarantee if you work with them. They will give your a life worth living.

Beachway Therapy Center was a blessing for our family. My loved one went in during a really difficult time, and the care they received made all the difference. The therapists were attentive, patient, and genuinely invested in helping them heal. Communication with our family was consistent and compassionate, which helped us feel supported throughout the process. We’re incredibly grateful for the progress they’ve made and for the people at Beachway who treated them with dignity and respect. I would recommend Beachway to any family looking for real help and real change.

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.
My son has been struggling with alcohol for years which grew into a full blown addiction. He tried a 30-day program which didn't last. Only when we found Treehouse Recovery in Costa Mesa did we find a place that could really help him. The staff are exceptional and they have cared for our son's success long after he completed his program. If you or your son need help look no further.

I’ve been to so many treatment centers. I swore last time I relapsed I wouldn’t go back to another because there all the same. But I had a friend reach out and tell me about treehouse. They told me it was drastically different and maybe something to ge the off the hamster wheel of treatment. They came out and met me and vetted me and made me feel important when I felt as low as possible. This place isnt a place where they stick you in a room and make you do group from 9-5. They teach you how to live again. There is an education group on addiction but it’s only an hour. The rest of the time you’re doing therapy. Which is 4 times a week. Or your lifting, in the gym, or learning how to be social again. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you want to do something different and stay sober. This is the place.

Tree House Recovery has proven to be a lifesaver for my son. My son had been using heroin for about 10 years, and his life was looking bleak. My family and I decided to step in and look for a rehab he couldn't Uber home from. We live in the east, and Tree House is in California. We liked the fact that it was a 5 month program, too.
Matt was our first person of contact. He made us feel like we were no longer alone. He was always there to guide us. My son was in a detox here which wasn't going as planned, and Matt wanted to get him to a detox in CA that he trusted. To get my son from the east coast to the west coast was challenging. He missed his first flight because he needed to buy heroin, not wanting to be in pain. We were able to get him on another flight that day, and Matt had someone waiting for him at the airport. It was a harrowing day, but Matt took care of all of the logistics and planning.
My son is now on the road to recovery. He actually likes the program, and after a few months, he is doing well. I worry less about him now that he is in the care of Tree House Recovery.
Wow. I was there 8 years ago. I went there thinking it was just another 4 week trip. I was sadly mistaken on that. I remember seeing Gus the first time and thinking “do they know what this guy is doing?” I was shocked yet presently surprised to learn he was the owner. I went through hurricane Irma there. I wasn’t scared but most other women were. It was like a bad thunderstorm in my part of the country. But it lasted 36 hours. So what? We came back to the “shoe” to find our little generator didn’t kick in. We lost everything in our fridge. Gus took it upon himself to get me Italian dressing. And he got the good stuff. Wow. I’ve stayed clean and sober for all these years. I found out i had stage 3 breast cancer 11 days after I left there. I’ve had double mastectomy and radiation. I’m still sober. Thank you 1st step

First Step Behavioral Health really helped me get my life back on track. The staff are caring, supportive, and truly want to see you do better. I’m so grateful for everything they’ve done for me!
RCA Westminster was a truly transformative experience for me. I went into inpatient somewhat unwillingly, but because of the wonderful RSS staff, medical staff, counselors, and group leaders I quickly became truly committed to my sobriety. The fellowship that was fostered there was so important to so many of us in the men's unit. I want to specifically thank Kyle, Niana, Calee, JoJo, Angel, Peter, Mike, Bella, Seth, and Katie for all the caring and work that they put in everyday. After inpatient I did IOP which has been essential to continuing my recovery as I move forward. Thanks again to Peter and Kyle, and also to Mark who has been a great help in transitioning back into real life. I will never forget what the people at RCA Westminster did for me.
Also, a huge shout out to the custodial staff that have to deal with some truly horrendous situations! they are incredible, and I am sure do not get paid nearly enough for what they do.

I can not say enough good things about RCA-Raritan Bay! As an alumni of their prestigious program, I am honored to have received such genuine support and care from their staff! Marguerite’s Big Book studies were my favorite! She truly goes above and beyond for all of her clients and cares sincerely about our success! She is an absolute blessing in the lives of all of us who have had the privilege of receiving her guidance! Betty is another gem at RCA! Just like Marguerite, Betty also takes the extra step to get to know you and provides the best advice and insights you could ever imagine. I have learned so much from them both. Betty pulled this resounding strength out of me that I never knew existed and I am eternally grateful! Shout out to Geraldine, Alexis, Amy, Kaden, Scott, Jeff and Ro! I can not thank you all enough for supporting me through my journey!

Thanks to RCA and the whole team off RSS and the the heads of this wonderful establishment and especially to Ms. Margruerite for the big book and ALUMNI. Cafeteria team keep it up with amazing menu and food. 🙏
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.
