Kaiser Permanente offers health insurance coverage in several states. They were founded in California in 1945 and have expanded from there. Kaiser is unique among insurers because they run Kaiser Medical Centers, which provide a variety of care to members. I especially like that Kaiser Medical Centers are leaders in LGBTQ+ care.
Does Kaiser Permanente Cover Drug Rehab?
Thanks to the Affordable Care Act (ACA), most long term insurance plans cover at least some of the cost of mental health and substance use treatment. There are exceptions to the law, however, so it pays to double check.
Each plan is different, so it’s important to understand the details of your specific plan. Don’t be afraid to reach out to the insurance company to get the information you need. You can ask what addiction treatment centers are part of your plan, for example. You can also find out what out of pocket costs, like copayments or deductibles, you’ll have to pay.

This place is god sent. I have been in several trauma centers in Florida and they are the only ones that seem to get it! Great snacks, fashionable donations (including shoes), and even better Techs.
Ive been clean since the holidays due to their new beginnings of sobriety excitement and impressive alumni support system +Nikki. Thanks, Boca 😀.

Boca is an amazing place. The staff is absolutely amazing. I was fortunate enough to be able to work with Misty and Sondra. From day 1 until the day I left was a complete 180. Misty helped set me up for my next steps, and truly cares and checked in on me to make sure it was the right fit. She got to know understood me as a person and truly knew the right next steps for me to be set up for success. Highly recommend Boca.
This was my second tine in DFC outpatient treatment, the reason I chose DFC was their teaching, there, client, and the friendly environment. I have been to many treatment centers in my past when I knew in my heart I was serious about recovering from drugs and alcohol. There was no other place that I wanted to go other than Design For Change. They give group and individual counseling tailored for the individual which helped me tremendously. They help me find out what I want and how to go about getting it in the group setting they don’t allow disturbances. They make sure everyone is focused. An attentive, which makes it easy to learn. DFC, my wife says thank you for giving her her husband back.

I have attended the Family Workshop many times. It is so amazing and has helped me so much. Dealing with addicted loved ones is so hard. You must have a support system to help you navigate all of the scary, stressful heartbreaking realities of this disease. The Design For Change staff have become like family to me. I know I can call on them when I need advice, someone to listen or just a shoulder to weep on. They understand and are always willing to help. I feel so very blessed to have found them. I wish every suffering addict and their family members would come to DFC for support and help. I am stronger and definitely more educated in dealing with my addicted loved ones one. If you are suffering from addiction or have a family member or loved one who is an addict, there is hope and help at DFC!

I would like to thank God for sending me to BOCA Recovery Center. When I first got there I couldn't believe it. The place was immaculate. Everything was in order, From the staff to the cleanliness. The snack bar was always full. They even had their own drink machine. The nurse is always on duty. Anytime you need your medicine you got it. No matter the time. My bedroom had a flat screen TV with Netflix, Amazon Prime, Tubi, Pluto TV and much more. They have community cigarettes, Basketball Court and a Gazebo! I couldn't believe this place! They have a private chef! They feed you three times a day all hot meals. You also can also go to group. They have a big screen TV in the common area. So if you want to talk and watch TV you can! They also have a PS5! I couldn't feel more comfortable anywhere else! Thank You BOCA RECOVERY CENTER for a 10 star detox!

I called the narcotics anonymous hotline about my son and they arranged for us to take him to Boca. My son didn't really want to go, but he went and was so glad he did. He is now over 5 months clean and doing extremely well. Thank you, Boca, for giving me my son back. He had nothing but great things to say about the way he was treated at your facility. When we picked up my son, we could see that the staff was very caring. There were hugs and tears from my son and others that he connected with. There was kind words and positivity from the staff. I would recommend Boca and I have to people who have asked. Thanks, again, Boca! ❤️

This place goes above and beyond for its clients. Let’s just say I’ve been there more than once on my road to recovery. The staff have become my second family. They have an alumni person that’s reaches out to clients to follow up after treatment and I call her my guardian angel. This place saved my life more than once and I believe it could do the same for you or your loved one. Highly recommend!

This place has been a magical, healing, life changing experience. I have struggled with addiction to serious drugs for over 20 years. I also struggle with mental health. I have been to 11 different treatment facilities. Some of them really good. This place blew them all out of the water. The setting is phenomenal. It’s located on 70+ acres of the most beautiful mountain setting that Mass has to offer. The sunrises are breathtaking. It’s like an enchanted forest. The bunnies and chipmunks and baby dear are adorable and amazing. I stayed in the ‘poets’, these amazing, spacious log cabins with cathedral ceilings. When I walked in the first time I cried in gratitude. The beds are comfy, you have plenty of privacy, and it’s a space I would stay at on vacation. The food is top notch. I don’t think I was served a single bad meal. The head cook, Matt, is so accommodating. It feels like home. You always have the option of a delicious salad bar, leftovers are available until 11 at night. I couldn’t asked to be better taken care of. Most of the RS staff are in recovery which is amazing. They are the most devoted caring staff I have ever had the privilege of knowing. And you do get to know them, their personal struggles and victories, they give you hope that this is possible. They were inspirational. Thank you to all of you: Chris, Justin, Lisa, Owen, Jess, Andrew, Steve, Brandon, Tim, Courtney, Moe, Ryan, Pete, Greg, Alina, Mark, Jamie. I hope I didn’t forget anyone. And of course I can’t forget the RS supervisor, John, who does an amazing job managing an amazing staff. You guys never ignored me, constantly asked how I was doing, and knew me well enough to know when I was down. I didn’t have a single request that wasn’t immediately dealt with in a kind way. Down to wanting printouts of watercolor painting ideas. I got ridiculous. Thank you. The classes were also amazing. We had groups six hours a day including women’s groups and process groups. I really thought that as much treatment as I have received that there was nothing left to learn. This place disabused me of that notion. Sarah’s groups were always fun and informative, plus she’s the best Clinician I’ve ever had. Thank you! Marcus, the family counselor, was like an injection of hope. He also does amazing family sessions. The man is a miracle worker. All of the case managers and clinicians are amazing. My case manager, Kelley, along with Sarah, helped me to set up aftercare that included IOP, a recovery coach, primary care appointments, MAT and psychiatry appointments, they helped my come up with a relapse prevention plan, deleted and block all dangerous contacts on my phone, disable my Facebook account, etc etc. I have never felt so prepared to go back to the real world. The executive director, Colleen, knows every patient by name, knows what your going through, and interacts with everyone on a regular basis. The nursing staff is also top notch. Headed by Kayla, they do a tremendous job. My favorite nurse was Scott but every one of them was endlessly available and truly stupendous. My needs were met in a timely and empathetic way. I was made to be comfortable and I’m so grateful. Then the clients, I don’t know what it is but the quality of client was truly wonderful. Everyone looked out for eachother, everyone was determined to grow and learn as much as possible. We had so much fun playing games, doing karaoke, riding horses, playing corn home and ping pong, hanging out at the fire making s’mores. It was truly like adult summer camp that saved my life and gave me the tools I needed to go out into the world and thrive. I cannot say enough about this place and it’s wonderful people it’s wonderful setting. I am forever grateful in a way I cannot express here.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Care, Life-Changing Experience at Asana Recovery
My journey with Asana Recovery has been nothing short of transformational. Walking through their doors, I wasn’t just another patient entering a treatment center—I was a person in need of compassion, structure, and genuine guidance. From the very beginning, the team at Asana made me feel seen, heard, and supported in a way that very few treatment centers truly deliver.
After just two months in recovery, I was given the incredible opportunity to become a house manager, which was a breathtaking experience. Not only did it deepen my recovery, but it allowed me to support others walking the same path. That chance to step into responsibility and service was life-changing, and it’s something I will always carry with me.
What sets Asana apart is the people. Jonathan and Linda, in particular, are shining examples of what makes this place extraordinary. Jonathan’s ability to connect with individuals on a deeply human level created a sense of trust that allowed me to open up and truly engage in the process. His wisdom, steadiness, and encouragement gave me tools that I will carry for the rest of my life. Linda’s presence is like a beacon—warm, nurturing, and absolutely unshakable. Her kindness and dedication went far beyond a “job”; it was clear she cares about every single person who comes through Asana’s program as if they were family.
And it isn’t just them—the entire Asana team embodies that same commitment. Whether it was the counselors guiding me through difficult conversations, the medical staff ensuring I was safe and cared for, or the support staff who brought positivity into every interaction, each person played an important role in making recovery feel possible. They created an environment that blended professionalism with heart, where structure and accountability were balanced with compassion and encouragement.
I’ve been to other facilities and spoken with countless people who have gone through recovery in different settings, and I can say without hesitation that Asana stands in a class of its own. Their approach is holistic, their community is genuine, and their impact is lasting.
To anyone considering Asana Recovery—whether for yourself or a loved one—know this: you will not just find treatment here; you will find hope, healing, and a family that will walk alongside you every step of the way. I am deeply grateful to Jonathan, Linda, and the entire Asana Recovery team for helping me reclaim my life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Kaiser Permanente Cover Suboxone & Methadone (MAT)?
Medication assisted treatment (MAT) uses FDA approved medication combined with other therapies to treat opioid and alcohol use disorders.
Suboxone and methadone are two of the most commonly prescribed medications for MAT. Kaiser Permanente offers plans that can help with the cost of these prescriptions. You may need to use in network MAT programs and pharmacies, however, so make sure you verify the details of your plan before you begin treatment.
Does Kaiser Permanente Cover Other Mental Healthcare?
Kaiser Permanente members have access to multiple options for mental and behavioral health care. Options include primary care, emergency care, and specialty care. Self care tools and resources are also available at no cost.
Most Kaiser Permanente plans include coverage for mental and behavioral health treatment. The types of treatment you might get for mental health include inpatient care, crisis support, support groups, therapy, and health classes.
Some people have a mental health diagnosis alongside addiction, which is known as co occurring disorders. Your Kaiser Permanente plan can generally help you pay for the integrated care you need to address both at once, which dramatically improves your chances of long term recovery.
Kaiser Permanente Coverage Areas
Kaiser has both health insurance and medical facilities. Most, if not all, Kaiser health plans have to be used at Kaiser clinics. You wouldn’t, for example, be able to go to the University of Oregon Health Services using your Kaiser insurance.
Kaiser Permanente operates in multiple states across the country, including California, Oregon, Washington state, Colorado, Georgia, and Hawaii. They also have clinics and hospitals in the D.C. area, including parts of Maryland and Virginia.
There are 40 Kaiser hospitals and 616 affiliated medical offices in their service areas. One benefit is that if you have a California Kaiser plan and go to college in, say, Colorado, you can use your California plan at Kaiser clinics in Colorado.
There are many ways to see your Kaiser doctor. You can schedule a video visit, make a phone appointment, or go to the clinic in person. There are also online visits and email advice available.
Types of Kaiser Permanente Plans
Kaiser’s individual and family plans are based on how you pay your costs. There are copay plans that have no deductibles. The premium is a bit higher, but you pay less when you get treatment. There are also deductible plans which are cheaper but you have to cover a deductible before the copay coverage kicks in.
Virtual plans charge you less for telehealth visits while still giving you access to in person care when needed. Finally, there are high deductible plans where you set up a special HSA bank account to save money to cover your health needs.
Kaiser Permanente also offers Medicare plans, Medicaid plans, employer plans that allow companies to offer health benefits to employees, and coverage for federal employees.
What Inpatient Rehab Does Kaiser Permanente Offer?
Kaiser uses their hospitals and clinics to provide addiction treatment. They cover a lot of types of treatment focusing on evidence based care recommended by your doctor. I love that Kaiser is actively involved in substance use treatment research. It helps them deliver state of the art care.
Their facilities offer medical detoxification and inpatient/residential care. A medical detoxification program uses FDA cleared prescriptions to help ease your withdrawal symptoms and reduce the potential serious side effects that are linked to some addictive drugs.
You have several options for inpatient or residential treatment at an approved treatment center. This can include evidence based treatments you receive in an individual or group setting. You can also get a combination of education and medical care along with therapy in a comprehensive treatment program.
At an inpatient or residential facility you live there and can get therapy during the day or evening hours. Inpatient care can be a good choice if you’ve tried outpatient treatment and it just didn’t work or when you have other physical or mental health conditions. It can also be helpful when your home situation makes it more difficult to stay clear of drugs and alcohol.
Insurance plans vary so it’s important to check your policy benefits and limitations. For example you might need to get a referral or preauthorization before you start rehab.
What Outpatient Addiction Treatment Does Kaiser Permanente Offer?
There are different types of outpatient addiction treatment Kaiser Permanente covers. Outpatient programs can be more challenging since you are practicing your new mindsets and habits in the pressure of daily life but the programs help you build the needed skills to handle these triggers.
This most intensive outpatient treatment is a partial hospitalization program (PHP) which is also known as a day program. You attend most of the day but spend the evenings at home or in a sober living environment. The next step down is an intensive outpatient program (IOP) where you receive around 9 hours a week of treatment and are able to work or attend school outside of your sessions. Finally, in a standard outpatient program you may have one or two therapy sessions each week.
You’ll likely get evidence based therapies like cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and dialectical behavior therapy (DBT). These are usually delivered through individual and group therapy along with family therapy when appropriate.
If you struggle with opioid or alcohol misuse, medication assisted treatment (MAT) might be a good solution. MAT allows you to use FDA approved medicine to manage cravings during treatment. This keeps you focused on your recovery and helps prevent relapse.
Your outpatient program may also offer peer support and aftercare programs that help prevent relapse and support your long term recovery. Peer support programs connect you with people who have been through the program and understand the challenges you face. Aftercare programs may include therapy and usually include some community support such as 12 step or other community support meetings.
Can I Travel Out of State for Treatment With Kaiser Permanente?
Yes, you can travel out of state for addiction treatment with Kaiser Permanente insurance. However for most Kaiser plans you still need to stay in network and use Kaiser Permanente clinics. That means you can go out of state and use your Kaiser insurance at a Kaiser clinic in the new state but you cannot get coverage at other treatment centers in that state.
If you do have a Kaiser plan that allows out of network coverage you can go to non Kaiser clinics in other states but you’ll pay far more in terms of your deductible and copayments. It’s best if you can find a suitable in network provider.
What to Do if Kaiser Permanente Won’t Cover the Cost of Rehab
Kaiser Permanente clinics offer high quality care for drug and alcohol addiction treatment but you may feel these clinics are not a good fit for you. This means you’ll be going to an out of network treatment center which may will not be covered by your insurance plan. In this case there are other ways to help pay for rehabilitation.
Your friends or family might be able to help or you might find an affordable faith based organization you align with to get treatment at. Some centers have a sliding scale of fees can be more affordable than other options. You might also set up a payment plan that spreads out the cost of treatment or get a scholarship or grant to cover rehab.
