Essential Benefits Under the Affordable Care Act (ACA)
The Affordable Care Act (ACA) requires that all Marketplace insurance plans treat mental health and substance use disorders as essential health benefits. This means your insurance must include coverage for:
-
Behavioral health treatment (therapy and counseling)
-
Inpatient mental and behavioral health services
-
Substance use disorder treatment programs
Additional Coverage Protections
In addition, all plans must:
-
Cover pre-existing mental health and substance use conditions from day one
-
Provide equal benefits for mental and physical health conditions
-
Eliminate yearly or lifetime dollar limits on essential health benefits
These protections, known as parity laws, ensure that addiction and mental health services are covered on the same level as other medical treatments.
Coverage requirements can vary for large employer or grandfathered plans. Our team will review your specific insurance policy to confirm what benefits apply to you.
How California Care Recovery Helps
Even with these protections, insurance can still be confusing. Our team makes the process easier by:
-
Verifying your coverage directly with your insurance provider
-
Explaining your benefits in clear, simple terms
-
Outlining any deductibles, copays, or out-of-pocket costs before treatment starts
