Using Optum Insurance to Pay for Rehab  

Do you have behavioral health benefits administered by Optum? If so, you may qualify for partial or full coverage of your rehab stay at Hotel California by the Sea. Various Optum health insurance plans can help cover the costs for drug and alcohol treatment at Hotel California by the Sea.

Optum plans provide coverage for those struggling with substance abuse and co-occurring mental health disorders in the United States. Utilizing Optum insurance to receive help can be the best option for clients experiencing the symptoms of substance addiction. However, the amount that your Optum insurance plan will cover for substance abuse treatment varies depending on multiple factors.

The amount of coverage provided by your Optum plan is contingent upon your home state (and the state of your plan) and terms/conditions of your specific plan. Optum reserves the right to make decisions concerning coverage on a case-by-case basis, factoring in each member’s circumstances and the specific type of treatment(s) the member receives.

There are a couple of steps that a member can take to discern whether their Optum health insurance will pay for the treatment of addiction. Our professionals will work directly with your insurance to ensure the most amount of coverage. Seeking either inpatient treatment or outpatient treatment for substance abuse disorders can be the first step on the road to long-term sobriety.
