Insurance Verification

The Oaks at La Paloma Treatment Center accepts most health insurance plans. If you have questions about whether you or your loved one’s insurance policy covers substance abuse or mental health treatment, please give us a call. We will be happy to verify your coverage.

We know it can be a daunting task trying to determine what type of coverage your insurance plan will provide. We can help answer any questions you might have. These questions might include the following:

  • How are HMOs and PPOs different when it comes to addiction treatment?
  • When will my insurance policy cover an out-of-network treatment center?
  • What out-of-pocket expenses might I expect to pay for my recovery?

Did you know the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act[1] was passed to help expand coverage for mental health related issues?  This includes the treatment for substance abuse. In essence, the law states that insurance providers that cover mental health conditions have to provide as much coverage for that as they do for general health services. The law also states that out-of-pocket expenses, deductibles, benefit limits, prior authorization and hospitalization costs have to be equal for both general and mental health related services.[2]
