vacaville californiaMultiple organizations in Vacaville and nearby offer free drug rehab. For instance:

Private Insurance

If you have a full-time job, or even part-time, you most likely have access to a health insurance plan that’s sponsored by your employer. You get the chance to sign up for health insurance when you start work and have chances during life events such as the birth of children or certain birthdays. Private insurance is widely accepted by most rehab centers, such as Vacaville Recovery, which offers inpatient treatment as well as outpatient services from their certified rehab center.

Different California health insurance companies, such as Aetna, Anthem, Blue Cross Blue Shield, and Health Smart, all have varying rules and policies. Your coverage may vary depending on the plan you choose, as well as what services are covered including medication-assisted treatment and experimental therapies. Call the number on the back of your insurance card to find out exactly what you’re covered for and how much your copay and deductibles would be.

Pay for Rehab with Medicare and Medicaid

If you’re low-income, over 65, or disabled, you may qualify for subsidized health insurance. Medicaid is the health insurance program for children and adults who can’t afford traditional employee-sponsored health insurance, called Medi-Cal in California. You qualify based on factors such as your annual income and family composition. Reach out to the California Department of Health and Human Services to apply for Medi-Cal, or go to CoveredCA.com to apply online.

Some rehabs, such as NorthBay Health, accept Medicare and Medicare Advantage for services. This program is available for seniors and people with disabilities and works slightly differently than Medi-Cal. For example, Medicare comes with co-pays and deductibles, as well as daily fees for residential rehab after a certain number of days. Speak to your insurance representative to find out precisely what services are covered under your Medicare plan, you can reach them by calling the number on the back of your insurance card.

According to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), the nearest certified rehab center is in Fairfield, a few miles to the south of Vacaville.6 If you’re too far away to attend a residential treatment program, Medicare and Medicaid as well as private insurance pay for telehealth services.
