GEHA Insurance Coverage for Addiction Treatment

Covers Addiction Rehab and Substance Use Disorder Treatment.

GEHA Insurance

GEHA (Government Employees Health Association) insurance is a not-for-profit provider of health and dental plans for federal employees, retirees, and their dependents. As part of the Federal Employees Health Benefits (FEHB) Program, GEHA is one of the largest health insurance providers to federal employees.

Does GEHA Insurance Cover Addiction Treatment?

Yes, GEHA covers addiction treatment. GEHA currently offers some of the best coverage for federal employees in the US regarding addiction rehab. Serving over 1.8 million federal employees, retirees, and their families, GEHA provides comprehensive coverage, including substance use disorder.

GEHA offers comprehensive coverage for the treatment of substance use disorders with its mental health program. This is in line with the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 1996. This act requires large group health plans, like GEHA, to offer equivalent benefits for addiction treatment as those provided for medical treatments.

You can expect good coverage for substance abuse treatment if you have a GEHA plan. Like most insurance carriers, the types of addiction recovery services your GEHA policy covers may vary. To see what you are qualified for under your insurance plan, contact your GEHA directly or call us to verify your benefits.

GEHA and Outpatient Addiction Treatment Care

Your GEHA insurance policy can help you pay for all or a major portion of addiction recovery costs. If you are enrolled in the High PPO or Standard PPO plans, nearly all costs of rehab that meet medical necessity are eligible for coverage. These plans can also offer considerably reduced copays and deductibles.

Moreover, these plans provide the flexibility to select from either in-network or out-of-network treatment providers. It’s important to note that choosing a rehab provider outside of the GEHA network will result in higher copay and deductible charges.

With your GEHA health insurance policy, you could be covered for 100 percent of the cost of treatment. Or your GEHA plan could greatly reduce the out-of-pocket expenses for drug and alcohol treatment services. The following rehab service the GEHA typically covers:
