If an individual requires help for drug addiction and dependence and is lucky enough to have health insurance, many drug rehabilitation centers in Alta, California accept health insurance and will work with individuals to see which rehab services are approved. Many private health insurance companies will cover outpatient and residential drug and alcohol treatment, but the time in rehab which is considered covered can vary. Private health insurance will more than likely cover the first 30 days of alcohol and drug rehabilitation, but there are clients whose insurance is more extensive and may extend to a more long-term stay in a drug rehabilitation facility. It is asked that potential clients consult with their plan directly with the help of their treatment center to determine what is covered by their private health insurance.
