Alcoholism and Drug Rehab That Accepts Humana North Carolina

Cornerstone of Recovery Accepts Humana for Drug Rehab

At the end of the road, if you’ve found you can no longer live with a drug problem, the choice is clear: Either go on until addiction has robbed you of everything, including your life, or find a new way to live. At Cornerstone of Recovery, that’s what we offer — addiction treatment that addresses the reasons why you continue to use in spite of the consequences, and provides a path moving forward in which you can enjoy long-term recovery free of the misery that’s been a constant companion for so long. If you want what we have to offer, don’t let the fear of financial strain stop you from making that first phone call. At Cornerstone, we accept most major health insurance plans, including Humana, so that some or all of your stay — from medical detox to residential inpatient to intensive outpatient — is covered by your Humana plan. At Cornerstone, our commodity is hope, and we understand all too well that you won’t be able to fully commit to the recovery process with the threat of financial hardship hanging over your head. Part of our job is to navigate your particular set of Humana benefits so that you can get the most out of treatment without the worry of how to pay for it.

Why Does Humana Pay for Addiction Treatment?

The American Medical Association recognized alcoholism as a disease in 1956; addiction was labeled as such in 1987, and ever since then, the federal government has made incremental steps to insure that coverage for substance abuse treatment is on a par with health insurance benefits for medical procedures. In 2008, the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act (MHPAEA) mandated that health insurance companies and group health plans provide the same level of benefits for mental health services that they do for medical and surgical care, and in 2010, the Affordable Care Act — known as “Obamacare” — placed substance abuse treatment within the behavioral health realm of insurance coverage. As a result, addiction was recognized as a legitimate medical condition, meaning that coverage can’t be denied and that plans on the Health Insurance Marketplace cover most behavioral health treatments and services. What that means is that companies like Humana — which provides medical insurance coverage for roughly 12 million Americans — are required by federal law to cover at least part of your residential addiction treatment.

Why Use Your Humana Policy at Cornerstone?

While many treatment centers around the country accept some form of health insurance, the quality of substance abuse treatment varies wildly from facility to facility. To get the most out of your Humana behavioral health benefits, it behooves you to research the facilities that accept Humana and choose the one that’s right for you so that you get the highest quality treatment from the benefits for which you pay. Cornerstone of Recovery has been an active leader in the addiction treatment field since 1989, and over the course of almost three decades, we’ve helped thousands of addicts and alcoholics from across the country to achieve long-lasting recovery. We work closely with several industries, treatment patients from five major railroads, four major airlines and a number of professional organizations, but we also provide treatment to men and women of all ages from a variety of vocations — or no vocation at all. Our beautiful new campus is located on the banks of the Little River in Knoxville, Tenn., but we’re not a flashy resort or a spa. The work we do combines traditional 12 Step recovery with clinically proven scientific therapies to address the core issues that drive our patients’ addictions, and our whole-person approach to treatment is the foundation for a life free of chemical bondage.
