Get Help Today.

Kaiser Permanente is one of the nation’s top not-for-profit health plan services and healthcare providers, serving 12.4 million members. As a company, Kaiser Permanente offers employer group coverage, Medicare coverage for seniors and people with disabilities, and private insurance for individuals and families.

If you live in a Kaiser Permanente coverage area and have Kaiser Permanente health insurance, you may choose to receive medical and clinical care through a Kaiser Permanente provider. Through assessments and conversations with you, your healthcare provider may determine that addiction treatment is necessary for your optimal health. Depending on your treatment needs, your primary Kaiser Permanente doctor may refer you to a specialized addiction treatment center.

In many instances, Kaiser Permanente health insurance will cover a portion of medical detox programs for drug and alcohol addiction. However, the extent of the coverage will vary from plan to plan. 

Briarwood Detox Center is in-network with several insurance providers, including Kaiser Permanente. If you are addicted and you need to complete detox before you go to rehab, your Kaiser insurance may cover a portion of your detox treatment costs.

Naturally, you may have questions about the extent of your Kaiser Permanente coverage for drug detox. This page will cover some of the most frequently asked questions about how to use Kaiser Permanente insurance to pay for drug detox. 

If you’d like to verify your Kaiser benefits online with Briarwood, please fill out the form on this page. All the information you provide will remain confidential and submitting the form does not obligate you to enroll in detox at Briarwood Detox Center.

Frequently Asked Questions About Aetna Coverage for Detox

Will my Kaiser Permanente insurance cover drug and alcohol detox?

Most Kaiser Permanente insurance plans provide coverage for drug and alcohol detox, but the extent of coverage varies depending on the type of plan you have, where you live, and whether the detox center you choose is in-network or out-of-network. For example, if you have a Kaiser Permanente PPO plan, you may be able to obtain coverage through an out-of-network provider, but in-network coverage will cost less.

What types of detox does Kaiser Permanente cover? 

Depending on the insurance policy, Kaiser Permanente may cover various types of detox including inpatient or outpatient but coverage varies by plan. The specifics of your policy will indicate whether inpatient detox, outpatient detox, or both are covered by your insurance and to what extent coverage is offered.
