JCAHO-accredited facility, we qualify to serve as an in-network treatment provider for Magellan Health Insurance. As a result of our commitment to excellence, clients can be assured of the high level of treatment they need and deserve.
Magellan Health provides many treatment plans that are designed to address substance abuse disorders. They partner with drug and alcohol rehabs and mental health professionals who specialize in dual-diagnosis treatment. This aspect of coverage is essential because most people with SUD also suffer from mental health disorders such as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and bipolar disorder. To be effective, treatment for SUD must include therapies that address the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects involved.
The services and addiction treatment coverage Magellan Health provides for SUD vary depending on the individual’s plan and the chosen treatment facility. Magellan Health typically covers treatment for addictions such as opioids, cocaine, alcohol, meth, hallucinogens, marijuana, and prescription drugs. Design for Change provides comprehensive, evidence-based programs for these and other addictions.
Our full continuum of care provides a range of scientifically proven treatment methods, providing positive recovery outcomes:
Typically, Magellan Health will partially or fully cover these program options. The amount of coverage depends on the plan, state of residence, length of stay, copays, deductibles, and your insurance plan. Furthermore, additional funding may be arranged through outside sources such as federal, state, and local government programs, bank financing, or secondary health insurance policies, to name a few. With the help of Design for Change, clients can usually find alternative funding to get the addiction treatment coverage they need.
Yes. Magellan Health offers extensive coverage for outpatient and intensive outpatient programs. Depending on the individual’s plan. Outpatient treatment allows clients to live at home while they attend meetings and counseling several times per week. The meetings will align with work, school, or family obligations. Intensive outpatient programs are a form of treatment that requires a higher level of time commitment from clients.
Magellan plans generally cover outpatient costs such as detox, medications, counseling, skills training, and aftercare services.
Yes. Magellan Health covers a variety of inpatient treatment programs, depending on the individual’s plan and other factors. At Design for Change, our inpatient, or residential, program provides comfortable, secure accommodations where clients remain 24/7 during treatment. The programs vary in length from 30, 60, to 90 days, or longer if needed.
Magellan may cover the costs of inpatient detox, medications, rehab, dual-diagnosis treatment, counseling, and transitional care. Our treatment advisors will verify our client’s insurance to determine whether they will have any financial responsibility for the treatment program.
Magellan Health covers medication-assisted treatment (MAT) for individuals with opioid use disorders. As an evidence-based treatment, suboxone works to decrease the severity of withdrawals and helps reduce cravings in the long term. Most importantly, Suboxone helps fight opioid addiction with fewer side effects than methadone.
When used in combination with other treatment methods, MAT can make a difference in whether a person succeeds in overcoming addiction.
Most Magellan Health insurance plans generally require clients to receive addiction treatment from an in-network facility. Basically, an in-network provider is one that has agreed to provide services to Magellan’s members for agreed-on prices. This means clients may pay more or the full cost for treatment if they choose an out-of-network treatment provider.
Another benefit of choosing an in-network provider has to do with peace of mind. At Design for Change, we work hard to maintain the high-quality treatment standards required by Magellan. As a result, our clients rest assured that they are in good hands throughout their recovery journey.
Design for Change Recovery is in-network with many insurance companies, including Magellan Health because we care about client’s successful recovery. By working with the insurance providers, we advocate for clients to arrange the most effective, affordable treatment program for their needs.
