Medical Mutual Insurance for Drug Detox

Medical Mutual is one of the oldest insurance companies in the U.S. and more than 1.6 million people rely on this company for medical benefits and insurance. With a variety of different policies available, people with Medical Mutual health insurance have access to several different levels and types of addiction treatment options.

Detoxing from drugs and alcohol is safest in a medically-monitored environment, but medical detox is more costly than quitting cold turkey on your own. If you have Medical Mutual health insurance, your policy most likely covers drug and alcohol detox services, which can help cover the out-of-pocket cost associated with medical detox.

If you or your loved one is searching for a detox center that accepts your health insurance, Briarwood offers a free, fast, and confidential insurance verification process to help you make your decision. We will contact Medical Mutual on your behalf to find out if drug and alcohol detox services are covered under your plan, and if so, to what extent.

On this page, we answer some of the most commonly asked questions about Medical Mutual insurance for drug detox. If you have additional questions about using your Medical Mutual insurance benefits to pay for detox treatment, call our admissions staff today at (888) 857-0557. You can also fill out the insurance form on this page to start the insurance verification process without calling in.

Frequently Asked Questions About Medical Mutual Coverage for Detox

Will my Medical Mutual insurance cover drug and alcohol detox?

If you have Medical Mutual insurance, your policy most likely covers drug and alcohol detox. You may or may not have a copay, but the majority of Medical Mutual plans cover detox under hospitalization and emergency benefits. Your out-of-pocket cost for detox will depend on your deductible and the percentage of cost-sharing (or coinsurance) between you and your insurance company. This information is specified within the details of your insurance policy or you can call Medical Mutual directly to find out.

What types of detox does Medical Mutual cover?

Medical Mutual may cover inpatient or outpatient detox services, depending on your medical need, as specified by an addiction treatment professional and/or a representative from Medical Mutual. This often varies on a case-by-case basis, but our admissions team can help you figure it out based on your treatment needs and insurance coverage.

How can I verify my Medical Mutual insurance coverage?
