It is truly life changing. You get out of the experience, and classroom work, what you put in. Pay attention and be honest! If you want to stay sober and stay clean, you gotta learn about yourself, not just the disease of addiction. All in Solutions really supports that part of recovery in a real and practical way.

My experience with All In Solutions has been a transforming experience from the moment they picked me up from detox. I walked in the door of their facility, broken, physically, mentally and spiritually. I was met at the front door by the intake coordinator. This lady completed my intake in a very welcoming, calming relatable and professional way.
Throughout the intake, she kept checking on me by offering me something to drink, eat and reassured me that I was safe and that there was Hope. I was immediately met with the medications, director, nurse, practitioner, nurse practitioner assistant and my amazing case manager. The housing director explained to me what my housing was going to look like. I was always given guidance and explained what was going on at all times.All of these people have been their for me every step of the way! I love the whole program at All In Solutions. The groups were facilitated by very professional, innovated, creative individuals that were not only relatable. Every employee at All In Solutions have been very kind, professional caring, giving people. Most of the employees are in recovery themselves, and even if they were not in recovery, they were still relatable, caring, giving people. I was only gonna stay for two weeks. Then extended to four weeks.Then I extended for six weeks at All In Solutions. I went from no Hope to seeing my life in a whole new perspective. All In Solutions gave me purpose hope perspective! They all gave me my life back in a whole new energized way! I can see clearly now that the rain is gone! I would definitely recommend All In Solutions to anyone! This is the best treatment facility I have ever seen in this country. Thank you so very much, All In Solutions!! You all saved my life!!

My only regret about this place is I didn't come here sooner!! I recently completed the PHP inpatient program here. I immediately felt a positive and welcoming energy walking thru the doors. I met with their intake employee and could tell he genuinely cared about my well being and he helped to instill hope in me that things were going to be ok from day one. Super awesome, caring, and Genuine guy. My recovery manager I was assigned was on the ball and I immediately felt I could trust him and that he understood what I had been going through. My therapist I was assigned was also amazing and I got a lot out of our one-on-ones and our group therapy sessions. I almost didn't want to leave lol. The other program participants were actually happy to be there and I have never seen that at any other place Ive gone to. The entire staff really worked hard for my recovery and I can't say enough great things about this place in one day. The classes were very informative and helped me shape an entirely different perspective on life. I left there a different person I was when I came in for sure and I'm so grateful to be alive today. I wanted to die a month ago. Thank y'all so much for helping me get my life back, my family back, and a strong foundation to build my life back on. It's a lot of work to go through something like this but if you are struggling like I was, give yourself a break and come check this place out because you deserve it and it's worth it!! 💪🙏❤️ Thank you Lantana!! Much love!!;

Oh my goodness, this was the best treatment facility. After they take me to Chattanooga, I feel it will be my last. I'm going to miss the staff; Mrs V has been so awesome, and Ms. Mechell, and Mrs, Tamiyah, and Desmond just a few that have made it a great experience.

I have used this medical facility since 1993. The vast majority of my experiences there have been positive. Easy access and on time appointments. Staff are knowledgeable, courteous, professional and treat me with the utmost respect. I would recommend the Louis A Johnson VA Medical Center to any veteran who needs medical services.

The only complaint I had was that when my clothes were washed, some items were bleached and turned pink. Other than that, I had a very positive experience.
The staff were kind, accommodating, and made the detox process as comfortable as possible. They offered snacks throughout the day, chef-prepared meals, and even had a food truck available. Smoking and vaping were permitted, and the rooms and beds were clean and comfortable.
Overall, I would recommend this facility to anyone seeking treatment. I would return if I ever needed to, although I’m grateful to have two years clean. I did have to return to treatment once due to insurance coverage and was transferred to Banyan.

Phenomenal place! All of the staff are very helpful and friendly. Anthony, client care coordinator is always checking in to make sure you are ok and if anything is needed, helps with a smile! Jason(therapist) is great, more in tuned than most I have seen. . Karen (EMDR) is gifted and am privileged to have been able to work with her. Magic Mike will blow your mind with his knowledge and things he can do. Food is good. Facility is clean. Beds on residential side are comfy.bon detox they are average. Such an amazing group! The only reason I gave 4 stars is this is not the place for residential treatment ....groups are aa ..lecture type no real interaction

Frequently Asked Questions
Does CareFirst Cover Addiction Treatment?
Most CareFirst BlueCross BlueShield plans offer addiction and mental health treatment coverage including drug rehabilitation. Two Federal laws mandate this coverage for most plans: the 2008 Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act and the 2010 Affordable Care Act. However there are exceptions to the laws, so be sure to verify your insurance details before starting rehab.
The amount of coverage you have depends on your specific policy. You could be required to go to a treatment center in the plan’s provider network and your doctor might need to preauthorize care before you begin rehab. Your out of pocket costs will vary as well.
All insurance plans focus on covering medically needed care, so work with your doctor to create a treatment plan that will show what types of addiction treatment are best for your situation.
Where Does CareFirst Operate?
They are the largest nonprofit health insurer serving people in the Mid Atlantic region with over 3.5 million members. The company employs 9,500 individuals in Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington DC.
They also have one of the largest enrollments in the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program in the nation and enroll Congressional employees with access to more than 96% of hospitals and 95% of doctors and specialists in the U.S.
CareFirst also provides members with digital tools and resources. This includes mobile health apps, telemedicine services, and online wellness programs. While the insurance plans offer coverage to individuals living in the Mid Atlantic region, it gives them access to over 1.7 million providers throughout the U.S.
Does CareFirst Cover Methadone & Suboxone (MAT)?
Another form of treatment that may be covered by your CareFirst plan is medication assisted treatment (MAT). MAT is the use of medications, combined with behavioral therapies, to treat addiction. Your CareFirst insurance plan may cover Suboxone and methadone MAT. However, you may need preauthorization from CareFirst for the prescriptions. The out of pocket costs (copay and deductibles) vary depending on your plan.
Does CareFirst Cover Other Mental Healthcare?
Those with CareFirst insurance gain access to a preferred network of behavioral and mental healthcare providers and addiction treatment centers. Providers include registered nurses, licensed behavioral health clinicians, and specially trained mental health representatives. You can contact CareFirst directly to be connected to this network of providers and choose a specialist near you.
Most CareFirst plans are required to handle mental health and behavioral conditions in the same manner they treat medical conditions. That means your coverage for mental and behavioral health treatment will generally be the same or better than for physical check ups, surgeries, etc. The percentage of coverage and any copays involved depend on where you live, the treatment provider, and your specific plan.
It’s common to have both a mental health diagnosis and substance use disorder, which are known as co occurring conditions. In that case getting integrated care that address both mental health and addiction is essential to successful long term recovery, so be sure to take advantage of coverage for mental health as well as rehab.
What Are CareFirst Plans?
CareFirst offers individual, group, Medicaid, Medicare, dental, and prescription drug healthcare coverage. The individual plans are designed to address individuals and their family’s needs. The plans have different policy limitations based on location. CareFirst offers employer group insurance to companies with 2 to 20,000 employees.
The Medicaid plan covers individuals of all ages living in Maryland from children to the elderly as well as persons with chronic disabilities.
CareFirst offers a range of Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans for Maryland, Northern Virginia, and Washington DC residents. They also offer dental coverage for individuals and families and prescription drug plans that cover a network of 66,000 pharmacies nationwide.
What Inpatient Addiction Treatment Does CareFirst Cover?
Most insurance companies focus on medically necessary care, and inpatient care is for those who need help to become medically stable and ready to start a less intensive treatment program. You must have a treatment plan set up with your doctor that shows what’s medically necessary in your case.
Inpatient treatment may include medically supervised detox, during which a group of professionals oversee your detoxification and ensure that you’re safe. Medications and other treatments are often used to help lessen the blow of withdrawal.
Inpatient and residential treatment programs are highly structured, supportive programs that have a high rate of success. While an outpatient treatment program may involve four to five hours of care a day, inpatient treatment is around the clock, and you have the support of medical staff and your peers during this time.
With inpatient treatment, you have a safe place to uncover triggers and develop coping mechanisms without the noise and temptations of the outside world. Inpatient programs also help you transition back to “real life” once you’re ready in a way that is best for you.
What Outpatient Rehab Does CareFirst Cover?
Outpatient care comes in several forms. Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) offer treatment while allowing the patient to return home daily. These programs are highly structured and include medical and therapeutic care, with a commitment of about 20 hours a week. These flexible and cost-effective programs ensure a recovery community as you transition back to life after treatment. They also provide autonomy and accountability that will help you stay sober long-term.
Intensive outpatient programs (IOPs) are ideal for those who don’t need round-the-clock support or supervision. They’re designed to offer support, prevent relapse, and help develop coping strategies. With an IOP, you’ll engage in group, individual, and alternative therapies, as well as support groups. These programs are often structured, flexible, and affordable and provide opportunities to practice recovery skills.
General outpatient treatment takes place in designated addiction rehab facilities, community mental health centers, and hospitals. Most require a commitment of 3-4 hours a day, 3-4 days a week, and usually last about 10 weeks. These programs are ideal for those with more moderate addictions.
As always, consult with your doctor to determine which treatment program is most beneficial for you if outpatient treatment is the path you choose.
Does Addiction Treatment Need to Be in Network?
Some CareFirst plans will cover out-of-network care, and others won’t. If you choose an out-of-network facility or provider, your deductibles and copayments will likely be higher even if your insurance covers it.
If you can find a provider or facility within your network, it’s a great way to maximize your insurance policy. If you choose an out-of-network provider, study your plan carefully and get answers to any questions you have before you get started.
How to Verify Coverage With CareFirst
It is crucial to understand your insurance coverage limits before admission into an inpatient or outpatient addiction treatment program. This will save you from unexpected medical bills later. They have a member services and customer service inquiry website and phone number where you can get information about your medical benefits.
Most drug rehab and addiction treatment facilities will verify your insurance policy. This service can give you far more information than calling the member services hotline. Drug rehab facilities can help estimate your out of pocket costs after verifying your coverage.
Many can offer an initial assessment over the phone to determine if you would be a good fit for their facility and will connect you with their financial counselor who can help you set up a payment plan and offer you sliding scale fees. They may also help connect you with financial assistance in the community.
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.
If you wish to connect with non-sponsor centers, you can browse top-rated listings, visit our homepage and browse by state, or visit SAMHSA.
