Horizon BCBSNJ Coverage Levels and Plans

Horizon BCBSNJ plan structures vary by employer and plan type, but common plan designs may include:

  • HMO/EPO-style plans that require in-network providers (and may have limited or no out-of-network coverage except emergencies).
  • PPO-style plans that may offer both in-network and out-of-network options, with lower costs in-network.
  • High-deductible plans (HDHP) where you may pay more upfront until you meet your deductible.

Does Horizon BCBSNJ Insurance Cover Drug and Alcohol Rehab?

Many Horizon plans provide coverage for drug and alcohol rehab as part of behavioral health benefits, and ACA-compliant plans include substance use disorder treatment as an essential health benefit. Coverage can vary by plan and may depend on whether the provider is in-network and whether prior authorization is required.

The amount Horizon covers depends on your specific benefits, your deductible and coinsurance, and the type of treatment you receive.

Covered services may include medical detox, inpatient care, partial hospitalization programs, intensive outpatient care, outpatient therapy and aftercare.

Does Horizon BCBSNJ Cover Mental Health Services?

Many Horizon plans include mental health benefits, which may cover services like counseling, psychiatry and evidence-based therapy. Coverage depends on your plan, the type of service received and whether you use an in-network provider.

The Recovery Village Cherry Hill at Cooper offers mental health and dual diagnosis services that may be covered, including therapies like EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) and CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy).

Horizon BCBSNJ and Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT)

Medication-assisted treatment (MAT) is the use of medication alongside counseling and behavioral therapies to support recovery. MAT can reduce withdrawal symptoms, help stabilize cravings and lower relapse risk for opioid and alcohol use disorders when clinically appropriate.

Horizon BCBSNJ may cover MAT medications and related services depending on your plan’s medical and pharmacy benefits. The Recovery Village Cherry Hill at Cooper may use MAT medications such as Suboxone, Sublocade, naltrexone and Vivitrol when appropriate.

Length of Treatment for Horizon BCBSNJ Coverage

Depending on the person’s needs, a stay at an addiction treatment facility commonly lasts 30, 60 or 90 days. These timeframes can allow for detox, intensive therapy, relapse-prevention planning and transition into ongoing outpatient support.

The length of treatment Horizon BCBSNJ covers varies by plan and is often based on medical necessity and progress. You can confirm what your plan covers by calling the number on the back of your member ID card or speaking with a Recovery Advocate at our facility.
