GEHA Health Insurance Coverage for Addiction Treatments

Starting your journey to addiction treatment can be overwhelming. One of the things that might be concerning for many is the cost of treatment. Your Government Employees Health Association (GEHA) insurance covers many services for addiction treatment as a part of its behavioral health benefits.

What services does GEHA Cover?

• Detoxification: The first step in the recovery that helps the body remove substances. Often covered by GEHA, especially when your healthcare provider requests it.
• Inpatient and Residential Treatment: For people needing a structured, 24/7 treatment environment, inpatient and residential programs offer comprehensive care.
• Outpatient Programs: Outpatient programs allow flexibility for people to receive care while attending to personal responsibilities. GEHA often covers various outpatient options, like intensive outpatient programs (IOP) and partial hospitalization programs (PHP), both of which are available at Midwest Recovery Centers.
• Therapy and Aftercare: GEHA typically covers counseling, support groups, and ongoing therapy, which can be crucial to achieving and maintaining sobriety. Midwest Recovery emphasizes aftercare as part of a long-term wellness plan, aligning well with GEHA’s coverage of these services.
