Determining whether your private health insurance covers rehab starts with reviewing your hospital cover for psychiatric, drug, and alcohol treatment benefits. Some policies offer full coverage, while others may only cover certain aspects like detox or inpatient care. Checking the fine print of your policy is important, as some insurers have waiting periods, restrictions, or specific eligibility criteria.
If this process feels overwhelming, you’re not alone. Many people find insurance policies confusing, which is why our team is here to help. We can walk you through your policy details, clarify what’s covered, and explore other funding options if needed.
Coverage depends on your insurer, policy type, and level of cover. Some plans fully cover inpatient rehab, medical detox, and therapy, while others require gap payments for certain services. Even if your plan provides coverage, you may still need to contribute towards accommodation fees, specialist services, or extended treatment stays.
If your policy does not fully cover rehab, you don’t have to navigate this alone. We can help you understand your expected costs and explore additional funding options to make treatment more affordable.
Some insurers require a GP or psychiatrist referral before approving claims for detox, inpatient rehab, or mental health-related addiction services. This is to ensure the treatment is medically necessary and aligns with your policy’s criteria.
If you’re unsure whether a referral is required, start by checking your policy or calling your insurer. If a referral is needed, we can guide you through the process and help you connect with the right healthcare professionals.
Yes — if your private health insurance doesn’t cover the full cost of rehab, you can combine it with other funding sources like superannuation, structured payment plans, or self-funding.
If your coverage leaves a gap in funding, we can explore options tailored to your financial situation and help you access the treatment you need without unnecessary stress.
No. If you hold a valid Gold or White DVA Health Card, your addiction treatment is fully funded. That means you won’t need to pay anything out of pocket for approved services, and there are no hidden fees. We want you to focus on getting better — not worrying about the cost.
If you don’t have private health insurance, you still have options to access addiction treatment. Many people without insurance choose to fund rehab through self-funding, structured payment plans, or government-assisted programs like NDIS or DVA.
If you’re unsure about the best way to finance treatment, our team can help you find a solution that works for your circumstances. Your recovery is important, and we’re here to support you in taking the next step.
