Drug & Alcohol Rehabs in California

Most health plans in California are required to cover addiction and mental-health treatment under state and federal parity laws. The specifics—like whether inpatient or outpatient care is covered, your deductible, and copays—depend on your individual plan. We'll help you find out what your plan includes.

The best way is to verify your benefits directly by calling the number on your insurance card or checking your online account. We can guide you through what questions to ask. Coverage varies by plan, so it's important to confirm your own benefits before starting treatment.

California offers inpatient (residential) programs, intensive outpatient programs, standard outpatient therapy, telehealth counseling, and medication-assisted treatment, among other options. The right fit depends on your needs, and your insurance may cover multiple types of care.
