Magellan and Behavioral Health Benefits
Magellan Health focuses on behavioral health benefits, including:
- Mental health treatment centers
- Behavioral health treatment and therapy
- Comprehensive care for co-occurring disorders
Magellan takes a whole-health approach, addressing substance use disorders plus co-occurring mental health conditions, including anxiety, depression, or PTSD. That means plan members can seek comprehensive, personalized, and evidence-based care that integrates physical and mental health services.
Who Does Magellan Partner With to Provide Coverage?
Magellan works with employers, insurance carriers, and government programs to manage mental health benefits. Plans may cover inpatient or outpatient treatment, intensive treatment, medication-assisted treatment (MAT), and medication management.
Explore Treatment and Your Magellan Benefits
Many Idaho treatment centers work with Magellan Health to offer mental health, medical detox, and substance abuse treatment services.
Our admissions team can review your specific benefits and help you explore treatment at Icarus in Boise. We can explain provider participation, any authorization steps, and potential costs. Icarus does not provide on-site detox; withdrawal management takes place with an appropriate external provider.
Magellan and Medicaid or Other Government Programs
In the state of Idaho, Magellan and other providers may administer health benefits for government programs as part of the Idaho Behavioral Health Plan (IBHP).
The most common plans usually cover a range of services for people ready to take steps towards improving their mental health issues. In these cases, coverage may be determined by a combination of state guidelines and medical necessity.
Understanding In-Network and Out-of-Network Providers
Either out-of-network or in-network providers pay expenses related to finding the necessary recovery support. For example, those with Magellan Health often have lower out-of-pocket costs when they choose in-network facilities. But that doesn’t mean you cannot choose an out-of-network treatment center.
Coverage differs because plan structures vary, but it’s still important to verify benefits directly. Our team works with Magellan plans and can help you understand how to apply benefits and lower out-of-pocket costs, regardless of network status.
Private Magellan Plans and Employee Mental Health Coverage
Magellan Health allows clients to get the correct level of care based on patients’ mental health factors. These include a few of the key services we offer:
- Inpatient treatment
- Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHPs)
- Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOPs)
- Medication-assisted treatment, especially for alcohol or opioid use disorders
- Medication Management
- Individual, group, and family therapy services
- Comprehensive aftercare planning, including support groups and relapse prevention strategies
Each plan is different, so be sure to check first. Contact our admissions representative to review your benefits.
Explore Treatment Facilities That Work with Your Plan
Choosing a treatment center means more than just finding one that takes your insurance. You must also consider the services offered, their experience with dual diagnosis treatment, and integrated care.
Entrust your recovery journey to a mental health care facility with experience working with Magellan plans to reduce your feelings of stress and uncertainty.
Speak to Our Team to Verify Magellan Rehab Coverage Today
Our admissions team can help you understand your benefits and explore treatment options. Call with your questions so we can walk you through the next steps.
For instance, plan members may need to pay co-pays or meet deductibles before Magellan Health covers treatment costs. Our team can explain estimated costs and answer questions before treatment. Final costs depend on the services provided and how your plan processes claims.
Your focus should be on getting well, not ironing out the details of your coverage, and we take that weight off of your shoulders. Here are the things to expect when you call us for help with an insurance plan review:
Calling Our Team for Magellan Plan Verification
When you call, have your Magellan plan information ready; you can find it on your benefits card. Additionally, be ready with any other health insurance you may have, such as a spouse’s plan. When you call, we will guide the process, asking you to share:
- Your name and current contact data, including a valid phone number and email address
- The group number and your member ID number, which is on the insurance card; if you have other health insurance, have those plan details available.
- Date of birth (eliminates confusion if another member has the same or a similar name)
- A list of any medications you take, including illicit or prescription
- Information about how much you drink or use drugs – frequency and dosages
- Past efforts at getting sober, whether on your own or in a recovery center, to help us understand your history and current needs
Collecting this information helps us verify your benefits and determine the most effective treatment plan for you.
