Explore Treatment With Your GEHA Benefits

Have GEHA coverage? Call our Admissions team at Icarus Wellness and Recovery to confirm your coverage and explore addiction or mental health treatment at our Boise program. We can discuss our programs, explain estimated costs, and help you plan your next steps.

We offer residential and outpatient treatment, including medication-supported care when clinically appropriate. Our program does not provide on-site medical detox or acute withdrawal care; if you need those services, a qualified outside provider should evaluate and manage them before admission. Coverage for that provider should be confirmed separately.

Understanding Your GEHA Plan

Your current member ID card and plan documents help identify the benefits and network relevant to your care. GEHA’s health-plan FAQs explain how to find plan brochures, member resources, and provider directories.

Have your plan information available when you call our Admissions team so we can check the details for the treatment recommended for you. A network name on a card is a starting point for that review.

Choosing Treatment at Our Boise Program

We offer residential treatment, partial hospitalization programming (PHP), intensive outpatient programming (IOP), and outpatient services. Our clinical assessment helps us recommend the structure and support that fit your needs.

We consider your current concerns, substance use history, mental health needs, and recovery goals. Our Admissions team can review your insurance benefits as part of planning the next steps.

Explore Your GEHA Benefits and Treatment Options

Residential Treatment at Our Boise Program

Our residential treatment provides a structured setting where you live while participating in therapy, counseling, and recovery-focused activities.

Our clinical team recommends a treatment plan based on your assessment and reviews your progress throughout care. We discuss the recommended duration and next steps with you as treatment progresses.

Outpatient Treatment

Our outpatient treatment offers therapy and recovery support without an overnight stay in the program. We can recommend outpatient care as a starting point or as continued support after a higher level of care.

PHP and IOP

Our PHP provides intensive daytime treatment. IOP offers structured therapy with a lower time commitment than PHP. Tell us about work, family, or other responsibilities so we can discuss how they may affect planning.

Therapy and Medication Support

Your treatment plan may include individual counseling, group therapy, family support, relapse-prevention skills, and mental health care. Medication management or medication-assisted treatment may be included when clinically appropriate.

Our providers consider your assessment, medical history, and current needs when discussing treatment options with you.

Talk With Our Team About GEHA Benefits

Review GEHA Benefits and Estimated Costs

Our clinical team recommends care based on your assessment. Our Admissions team reviews:

Your eligibility and benefits for the recommended services
The applicable provider network
Your deductible, copays or coinsurance
Any referral or prior authorization requirements
Estimated costs and any continued-care review requirements

We explain the results before you make a treatment decision. A benefits review helps with planning, but it is not a guarantee of payment.

Authorization and Plan Requirements

GEHA’s authorization guidance explains that some services need approval and provides different resources for its plan options. We can help identify the steps relevant to your recommended care.

Prepare for Your Benefits Review

Have your insurance card, member ID, date of birth, and contact information available if possible. If something is missing, call our Admissions team for help getting started.

GEHA’s member support center also explains how to access your ID card and plan documents. If you need another way to pay for care, ask our team about the payment options available for your circumstances.
