Aetna insures more than 39 million people and strives to “help them live healthier lives.” The company has been around since 1853 and offers a wide variety of plans, including HMOs, PPOS, HDHPs, and more. Compassion Behavioral Health is pleased to partner with Aetna to provide a variety of mental health and substance abuse services. If you have Aetna, take a look at your summary of benefits to find out what’s covered.
Mental Health and Substance Abuse Coverage
Thanks to the Affordable Care Act and Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act, every Marketplace plan must pay for behavioral health treatment, mental and behavioral health inpatient services, and substance abuse services. Of course, your medical history, the details of your treatment plan, and your policy’s deductible and copay requirements will determine your coverage limits.
Depending on your policy, pre-authorization, documentation with referrals from your primary care provider, and your history of previous mental health care or substance abuse treatment may be required. Rest assured that Compassion Behavioral Health will work with you to confirm your benefits and ensure that finances don’t stop you from receiving the quality treatments and care you deserve.

- Residential treatment
- Partial hospitalization (PHP)
- Intensive outpatient program (IOP)
- Outpatient program (OP)
- Group therapy
- Individual therapy

Frequently Asked Questions
Why should I choose a treatment center that works with my Aetna insurance plan?
While you don’t have to go with an in-network provider like Compassion Behavioral Health for your mental health or substance abuse treatment, doing so is a good idea as it will ensure you’ll maximize your benefits. You’ll have to pay more out-of-pocket if you receive care from an out-of-network center.
Does Aetna offer resources for addiction treatment?
Aetna’s customer service center offers a number of services you may find invaluable. You can use the treatment finder tool to locate therapists, health care professionals, and treatment options near you. Be sure to have your member ID and plan information handy.
