Checked plan by plan
Does Aetna cover rehab?
Many Aetna plans cover some drug and alcohol rehab and mental health treatment, and Enhance is in network with Aetna.
Your own plan decides which levels of care it pays for, what you pay, and whether it needs approval first.
Admissions checks your Aetna insurance before you start, and a verification is not a guarantee of coverage.
The network
If your Aetna plan is in our network, you use your in-network benefits. Admissions confirms the network from your member ID, not from the logo on the card.
The plan
Aetna PPO and HMO plans do not pay the same way, and one plan can cover PHP while another covers only outpatient care. Admissions checks your own plan instead of assuming it matches another member's.
What Aetna rehab coverage may include
Enhance offers each service below, and your Aetna plan decides which ones it covers and what you pay for them.
Medical detox
Medically supervised detox helps you through withdrawal, with medication to ease it where needed. Admissions asks Aetna about detox as its own level of care.
Residential treatment
Inpatient rehab, also called residential treatment, means you stay on site with clinical staff. Many plans review medical necessity before they approve it.
Partial hospitalization
PHP takes up most of the day, often five days a week, and you go home each evening.
Intensive outpatient
IOP runs a few hours a day, several days a week, with morning or evening sessions.
Outpatient treatment
Individual, group and family therapy continue with licensed therapists once you no longer need a structured day program.
Behavioral therapy
Your therapist may use CBT, DBT, REBT or EMDR, depending on what you are working on in treatment.
Medication management
A licensed psychiatrist prescribes and adjusts medication when you need it. Your plan's pharmacy benefit sets what the prescriptions cost.
Dual diagnosis
We treat a substance use disorder and a mental health condition together, and admissions checks your benefits for both.

We check your mental health benefits the same way. Your insurance card alone doesn't tell you which levels your plan covers.
What we treat
Conditions your benefits may cover
Your plan may cover treatment for addiction, mental health conditions, or both at the same time.
What happens when you call
See what happens when you call admissions or send us the form.
You call or send the form
You share your member ID, the name on your card, and whether you need addiction treatment, mental health care, or both.
Admissions calls your plan
With your permission, admissions asks your plan what it covers for the level of care you need.
Admissions explains your benefits
We walk you through your deductible, your copay, and whether your plan needs prior authorization before treatment starts.
You decide
Nothing starts until you decide to go ahead. If you're not ready, there's no pressure and no obligation.
Benefits vary from plan to plan, and checking them does not guarantee coverage.

Common questions about Aetna
If your question is not answered here, call admissions at (714) 862-1907.
Does Enhance in Tustin accept Aetna?
Yes, we're in network with Aetna. Admissions still checks your member ID, because not every Aetna plan uses the same network.
Does Aetna cover drug and alcohol treatment?
Many Aetna plans cover treatment for a substance use disorder, including drug rehab and alcohol rehab. Admissions checks which levels your own plan covers and what you would pay.
Does Aetna cover mental health treatment?
Many Aetna plans include behavioral health benefits for conditions such as depression, anxiety and trauma. Admissions checks those benefits on the same call as your addiction benefits.
Does Aetna cover both inpatient and outpatient rehab?
Some Aetna plans cover both, and some cover only certain levels. Admissions asks about inpatient and outpatient treatment separately, because coverage for one does not prove the other.
How many days of rehab does Aetna cover?
Your plan sets the number of covered days. Admissions asks Aetna and tells you what your plan says.
Do I need preauthorization for Aetna to cover rehab?
Many Aetna plans ask for approval before inpatient, PHP or IOP care starts. Admissions asks whether your plan does before treatment begins, and the approval is Aetna's decision.
What does out of network mean for me?
If your Aetna plan's network does not include Enhance, your out-of-network benefits may pay less or nothing. Admissions tells you what those benefits say and what your out-of-pocket costs could be.
What should I have ready?
Have your member ID and the name on your card, and tell admissions if you need detox, inpatient, PHP, IOP, or outpatient care. Admissions also needs a phone number to reach you.
Can a family member check my Aetna benefits?
Yes, a family member can call admissions with your insurance card. Admissions needs your permission before asking Aetna about your benefits.
Does a verification mean Aetna will pay?
No. Verification tells you what your plan covers, and Aetna still decides whether to approve and pay for treatment.
What if Aetna denies a level of care?
Your plan must explain a denial in writing and tell you how to appeal it. In California you can also ask the state for an independent medical review.
Does Aetna Better Health work the same way?
Aetna Better Health plans are Medicaid plans, which in California means Medi-Cal. Medi-Cal is not one of the plans we list as in network, so tell admissions at the start of the call.
Is my information kept private?
Yes. Admissions keeps what you share private and uses it to check your benefits and talk with you about care.
Have admissions check your Aetna card
Call with your member ID in hand to verify your Aetna benefits. Admissions will tell you what your plan says before you decide.
