For those struggling with addiction or a mental health crisis, getting treatment can feel daunting. Trusted recovery facilities such as The Phoenix can help individuals feel confident in the treatment they will receive. However, many people still refrain from going to a treatment center because they assume the cost will be unattainable. Luckily, The Phoenix has many different types of accepted insurance, including Blue Cross Blue Shield. 

What is Blue Cross Blue Shield?

Blue Cross Blue Shield is an association of 36 large, separate health insurance companies and organizations all across the United States. The association offers health care coverage in every state and even spans to the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The association is one of the largest health insurance providers in the United States. With over 100 million members, they insure close to 1 in 3 Americans

Because Blue Cross Blue Shield is such a large organization that spans every state, many states have different names for BCBS. Blue Cross Blue Shield Utah is often known as Regence. Regence BCBS covers Utah, Oregon, Idaho, and sections of Washington state, serving nearly two million members

BCBS Addiction Recovery Coverage

Having insurance that offers addiction recovery coverage is a huge help for individuals seeking treatment. Blue Cross Blue Shield healthcare coverage depends on the specific benefits outlined in an individual plan. Most plans will cover medically supervised detox, depending on the treatment being alleged necessary by a doctor. Generally speaking, Blue Cross Blue Shield will provide their policyholders with addiction recovery coverage that include:

  • Counseling
  • Behavioral therapy
  • Short-term treatment
  • Long-term treatment
  • Outpatient treatment
  • Medication-assisted treatment
  • Inpatient or residential programs
  • Medically supervised detox
  • Partial hospitalization programs

As mentioned above, the benefits provided by each Blue Cross Blue Shield policy holder is dependent on that individual’s health care plan and coverage. Additionally, though an individual policy might offer all of the benefits listed above, the percent of coverage offered will vary depending on individual coverage. As such, it is important to consult with a Blue Cross Blue Shield specialist to determine your individual coverage.

BCBS Mental Health Treatment Coverage

With COVID-19 still prevalent across the United States, many people are facing greater mental and behavioral challenges due to stress about COVID-19, political unrest, economic uncertainty, isolation, and more. Blue Cross Blue Shield is committed to offering mental and behavioral health resources and coverage to help meet these individual needs. 

Mental and behavioral health is often seen as the same, though there are some differences that may arise when looking at health care coverage options for treatment. Blue Cross Blue Shield does offer different types of both mental and behavioral health treatment coverage. Similar to addiction recovery, coverage is dependent on an individual’s plan.

Similar to addiction recovery coverage, BCBS offers different mental/behavioral treatment coverage including inpatient and outpatient treatment, therapy programs, counseling, partial hospitalization programs, and more.
