Contact Information - Step 1 of 4

Confidential. No obligation. This is not a medical emergency service — if this is an emergency, call 911.

How Verification Works

  1. Share basic plan details

    Your insurance carrier, member ID, and the type of help you are looking for. No medical records are needed.

  2. Benefits are checked

    Coverage for detox, inpatient, outpatient, and medication support is reviewed against your specific plan.

  3. You get plain-English answers

    What your plan may cover, what out-of-pocket costs could look like, and which program types fit your benefits.

What Insurance May Cover

Under federal parity rules, most health plans that include mental health benefits must cover substance use disorder treatment comparably to medical care. Depending on your plan, benefits may apply to medical detox, inpatient rehab, PHP, IOP, and medication-assisted treatment. Actual coverage always depends on your specific plan, network, and medical necessity review — verification tells you where you stand.

What Information Is Needed

  • Insurance carrier name (for example Aetna, Cigna, BCBS, UnitedHealthcare)
  • Member ID from your insurance card
  • Date of birth of the policy holder or member
  • The type of treatment you are exploring, if known

You do not need your deductible details, medical records, or referral paperwork — that is what the verification uncovers for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does checking my insurance cost anything?

No. Benefits verification through this site is free and confidential, and it does not obligate you to enroll in any program.

Will verifying benefits notify my employer?

No. A benefits check is a routine insurance inquiry. Employers are not notified when benefits are verified.

What if I have Medicaid or Medicare?

Medicaid and Medicare both include substance use treatment benefits, though covered services and participating programs vary by state and plan type. Verification clarifies which options apply to you.

What if I have no insurance at all?

You still have options, including state-funded programs, sliding-scale fees, and private-pay arrangements. Call to talk through realistic paths forward for your budget.
