Many people that are caught in the grip of addiction and are looking for help ask the question, “Will AmeriHealth Insurance pay for my rehab?” Luckily, AmeriHealth does have Preferred Provider Organization (PPO) and Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) plans covering drug and alcohol rehab.
When a person has the ability to set the financial aspect of rehab aside and focus solely on the treatment, the likelihood of success is much higher. For AmeriHealth drug rehab coverage and alcohol rehab coverage to cover all or a portion of your rehab costs, the treatment must be considered “medically necessary,” and the policyholder’s Primary Care Physician must refer each patient.
