Soberman’s Estate was everything I needed for my recovery. The staff, the program, physical activity and culinary experience were top notch and essential. The program is well designed and worked better than I expected. The staff is remarkable - professional, considerate and genuinely caring. My time there and being removed from alcohol for five weeks was everything I needed to remove my craving for alcohol. Soberman has changed my life in ways I never could have imagined. I feel confident, secure and grateful for my new life. I have reconnected with my family and friends. Thank you Soberman.

BEST PLACE EVER. I have tried various other doctors/clinics and none of them even begin to compare to this one. The staff here is absolutely amazing. I can’t even make a single complaint. Dr Son is the best as well. He explains everything and you truly feel like he understands you. I can proudly say this, this place saved my life. If you or someone you know needs help getting off opiates do it right the first time and come here. You won’t be disappointed. If you are specifically struggling with fentanyl please don’t waste your time with other ways. I have tried 6 other methods from lazer therapy to having the earpiece to suboxone. Methadone is the key to our current fentanyl crisis. This clinic makes recovery possible again!

My sobriety journey started at Boca. The staff members including Miss Tracey, Hannah and Kevin their alumni coordinator have completely flipped the trajectory of my life. I was immediately taken in with open caring arms and they made my detox process as comfortable as possible. During my stay, Joe was extremely helpful in helping me slowly gain my appetite back and start to feel stronger and was so attentive to my nutritional health. Nurse Patrick was so kind to me during my intake and Kevin still reaches out to me very often to check in and is so helpful in my recovery process. I owe gaining my life, my strength and my family back to Boca and I am eternally grateful❤️

Coming from Canada, I was hesitant. But God knew that S2L was exactly where I needed to be. At 64 years of age, I was able to discover my true identity, purpose, and mission in Christ. They help you in trying to get clean and sober for sure. But what S2L and the staff are all about is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. That’s why it is so successful.

Been sober a few months now thanks to this place. My counselor Val helped me through some of the hardest moments of my life and supported me & my family every step of the way. Addiction took over my life and nearly destroyed my relationship with my family. I would not be here if it was not for her, Avenues and the wonderful staff they have there. Tyler, Cassie and Joe Kane were also a big help. Would recommend to anyone needing help.

My experience at Steps to Recovery has been great for the most part, the people and the environment are very welcoming and comforting. I have had some issues that have come up, but they usually get resolved. My only main gripe is with some of the other clients at the community living house fail to clean up after themselves, and some do not know self control. But, the staff here is very professional and easy to talk to. I find that the opportunities here for my recovery journey are pretty good, although I'd like access to more holistic therapy resources. I've actually personally facilitated a Dharma meeting and will facilitate more in the future. I appreciate my time here at STR and am excited for the future with them.

All In Solutions changed my life in ways I can’t fully put into words. I came in feeling lost, broken, and unsure if recovery was even possible for me. From day one, I was met with genuine compassion, patience, and people who truly cared about me as a person, not just my addiction.
This program helped me heal not only mentally and emotionally, but spiritually. I found a connection to something greater than myself, learned how to sit with hard feelings instead of running from them, and started to believe that my life had purpose again. They gave me the tools, support, and safe environment I needed to grow, rebuild my self-worth, and create a foundation for a healthy future.
Today, I am over a year sober — a miracle and a second chance at life that I don’t take for granted. That new beginning started here. I will always be grateful to All In Solutions for helping me find hope, strength, faith, and a new way to live.

All In Solutions has changed my life... I highly recommend this program to anyone fighting drug addiction or any problems they are facing in life. ALL the staff are amazing and very professional!! When I got here I had no hope on my future and now that I've completed this program, my dreams are becoming reality. They have taught me so much about myself and life in general to the point that I have COMPLETE confidence that I will stay sober and be able to accomplish any goal I set forward. Thank you to all the staff at All in Solutions, you guys ROCK!!!

Avenues provided me with the treatment I desperately needed without even knowing I needed it. I learned so much about the disease of addiction, myself, others, recovery, and healthy coping skills to help me further my journey. Miss Gina, Heather, LaToya, Melissa, Jenna, Kyla, Sunny, and LaToya are AMAZING! Bobby and Lopez are also AMAZING. Miss Gina made me feel loved and safe from day 1. Everyone there made me feel loved and safe. They also fostered an environment which encouraged all female clients to support and lift one another up at all times. It was a healthy and loving and healing experience; and I am so very thankful.

This is hands down the best drug and alcohol program in south Florida. Boca Recovery Centers is clearly in the business of saving lives and really care about their patients. I’ve never seen an organization try harder to help people in every definition of the word. Thank you Boca Recovery Center. You are literally saving lives every day.

As a professional who has referred several individuals to Boca Recovery Center, I can confidently say their commitment to individualized care is unmatched. They don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach; instead, their team takes the time to understand each patient's unique history and needs. The staff is very professional and communicative. Bo Garfield has been stellar and Boca comes highly recommended.

BCBS may cover several types of behavioral health services. For example, if you need inpatient and outpatient care, medical detox, therapy, counseling, and aftercare programs to support your recovery journey, your plan may help.
Two federal laws regulate the insurance industry. These laws are the 2008 Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act and the Affordable Care Act. However, there are exceptions to these laws, so it is important to check your insurance coverage before starting treatment.
Typically, an addiction treatment center can help verify your insurance coverage, estimate your out of pocket costs, and answer your questions about the therapy options.
Where Does Blue Cross Blue Shield Offer Coverage
Blue Cross Blue Shield offers coverage across the U.S., including all states, Washington DC, and Puerto Rico. The insurance coverage is provided through 33 independent and locally operated companies. Each one serves a specific region and offers tailored plans to meet the needs and regulations of the local communities.
In addition to domestic coverage, BCBS offers international coverage through the Blue Cross Blue Shield Global network. This provides coverage when you live, work, or travel abroad, and it ensures that as a member of Blue Cross Blue Shield, you have access to healthcare services worldwide.

What Types of Policies Does Blue Cross Blue Shield Provide?
BCBS offers a full range of policies across independent insurance companies. The policies are designed to meet the needs of the local communities. This means you may not find every type of BCBS plan in your geographical area.
You can usually buy individual and family plans through the health insurance marketplace for your state. They include a range of Health Maintenance Organizations and Preferred Provider Organizations. You can also find High Deductible Health Plans that can be paired with Health Savings Accounts.
Long term plans in the Marketplace must meet the Affordable Care Act regulations for essential health benefits, including covering treatment for mental health conditions and substance use disorders.
Employer Sponsored Group Health Plans cater to businesses of all sizes. Often, larger employers can acquire more benefits in their policies and have more flexibility in choosing what to cover. These plans may cover essential health benefits, including behavioral health services and chronic disease management.
Government sponsored health plans include Medicare and Medicaid. Blue Cross Blue Shield offers Medicare Advantage plans, Medicare Supplement Insurance, and Medicare Part D prescription drug plans.
Medicare Part D typically covers medication assisted treatment for Original Medicare. Medicare Supplement Insurance helps cover Original Medicare copays and deductibles for inpatient and outpatient care, including behavioral health services. Medicare Advantage plans replace Original Medicare and often offer additional coverage benefits but you generally have to stay in the plan’s provider network.
Specialty insurance plans offer additional coverage beyond standard insurance policies. This might include dental, vision, critical illness, and short-term health insurance.
BCBS also offers international health insurance policies to cover your medical care while you’re traveling or living abroad.
What Types of Inpatient Addiction Treatment Are Covered By Blue Cross Blue Shield?
Most BCBS plans cover the cost of inpatient or residential treatment. During inpatient treatment you’ll be in a clinic or hospital while residential treatment usually takes place in a more home like facility located outside of a hospital. Medical detox may occur in either setting.
In inpatient programs you’ll get around the clock care and support delivered by professional staff. Inpatient care often lasts for several days or weeks while residential care typically lasts 28 to 30 days with some programs running 60 days or 90 days or more.
Insurance plans emphasize medical need as a condition of coverage so you may need a referral and/or preauthorization before you start treatment. Every plan is different so be sure you understand your coverage and out of pocket costs. Also remember that if you go to a facility in your plan’s network you can get maximum benefits for the lowest cost to you.

If you’re in a partial hospitalization program you’ll attend treatment during the day and then return home or to a sober living environment at night. A typical PHP program runs for 4 to 8 hours a day for three to six days a week and lasts 30 to 90 days. You’ll get treatment similar to a residential program including evidence based care and holistic treatment options.
If you attend an intensive outpatient programs you usually get 9 to 20 hours of treatment per week with the hours spread over 3 to 5 days. The program generally lasts for at least 90 days.
In generaloutpatient programs you would visit a clinic or rehab facility one or more times a week. Group counseling and educational sessions on substance misuse and relapse prevention strategies make up the typical program schedule. Individual sessions are often offered as needed and some general outpatient programs include 12 Step peer group meetings.
Does BCBS Cover Suboxone & Methadone (MAT)?
Medication assisted treatment is a common form of treatment used to address alcohol and opioid use disorders with the use of FDA approved medications and counseling. As standard medications for MAT, Suboxone and methadone are often covered under BCBS plans.
Does Blue Cross Blue Shield Cover Mental Health Benefits?

Does Addiction Treatment Need to Be In Network?
Depending on the type of plan you choose you might need to attend an in network rehab in order for the costs to be covered by your insurance.
They offer both preferred provider plans, also called PPO, and health maintenance organization plans. PPO plans let you get treatment from any provider you wish to use and you don’t need a referral. But these plans generally have higher premiums and greater out of pocket expenses than HMO plans.
HMO plans will have a lower monthly premium, but the cost savings come with some tradeoffs. You’ll need to see a provider that’s within the plan’s network and you generally need a doctor’s referral to see a specialist such as an addiction counselor. HMO plans usually do not cover out of network care unless it’s a life threatening emergency.
How Much Does Addiction Treatment Cost Without Insurance?
If you don’t have private insurance you can still find affordable addiction treatment. Most states and many counties have government funded substance abuse treatment programs and you can find information about them on the state or county website. These rehabs might have longer waiting periods for admission and you won’t find luxury amenities but you can get the treatment you need for free or at a very low cost.
Other ways to afford addiction treatment include using scholarships which are sometimes available from treatment centers or advocacy groups such as LGBTQ+ groups. Ask the rehab you are considering whether they have these options. Also find out whether the rehab offers sliding scale reduced fee options. Finally if need be you might consider using a credit card to pay for your addiction treatment or you could borrow money from family or friends.
The most important part is getting the care you need so take the time to be diligent and creative in searching for funding options.
