Mass General Brigham Health Plan Was Formerly AllWays Health Partners

AllWays Health Partners became Mass General Brigham Health Plan on January 1, 2023. 

The new name reflects the insurer’s connection to the Mass General Brigham healthcare system. The change did not create an entirely new insurance company or automatically end existing coverage.

Older insurance documents may still use the AllWays Health Partners name. Some provider records may also contain the previous name. If your card says AllWays, contact the plan to confirm whether you need an updated card. You should also verify your current member number before entering treatment.

Does Mass General Brigham Health Plan Cover Drug and Alcohol Rehab?

Mass General Brigham Health Plan generally covers medically necessary treatment for substance use disorders. 

Available benefits may include assessments, therapy, outpatient treatment, detoxification, and inpatient rehabilitation. Medication-assisted treatment may also be covered for alcohol or opioid use disorders.

Coverage is not the same for every member. Your policy may limit treatment to participating providers. It may also include a deductible, copayments, or coinsurance. Certain services require approval from the insurer before treatment begins.

A clinical recommendation alone does not guarantee payment. The treatment must meet the plan’s medical-necessity criteria. The facility must also submit claims correctly and follow any authorization requirements.

You are not alone. You deserve to get help.

Lake Avenue Recovery is an industry leader in addiction treatment in Massachusetts. Our team of top medical experts specialize in dual diagnosis treatment and are committed to ensuring that each patient is treated as an individual. Call us today, we’re available 24/7.

What Levels of Care Are Covered?

Mass General Brigham Health Plan offers policies with behavioral health benefits at both outpatient and inpatient levels. The correct program depends on withdrawal risks, current symptoms, home stability, and previous treatment.

Potentially covered levels of care include:

Current plan documents list outpatient substance use care and inpatient detoxification or rehabilitation as covered benefit categories. Member costs vary widely between policies. Some documents also state that behavioral health services may require prior authorization.

Mass General Brigham Health Plan and GIC Coverage

Mass General Brigham Health Plan offers coverage to eligible members of the Massachusetts Group Insurance Commission. GIC provides health benefits for participating state employees, retirees, and their dependents.

The GIC plan has its own network and cost-sharing rules. Its current benefits include coverage for behavioral health and substance use services. Most nonemergency care must come from participating providers. The plan also has a combined out-of-pocket limit for medical, pharmacy, and behavioral health expenses.

Do not assume that standard commercial benefits apply to a GIC policy. Members should use the phone number on their insurance card. The plan also provides a dedicated GIC customer service line at 866-567-9175.

How to Check Your Coverage

You can contact the insurer yourself or ask Lake Avenue Recovery to verify your benefits. Have your insurance card, date of birth, and member information available.

A thorough benefits check should answer several questions:

  1. Is Lake Avenue Recovery in-network?
  2. Does my plan cover day treatment, IOP, and outpatient care?
  3. Do I need a referral or prior authorization?
  4. How much of my deductible remains?
  5. Will I owe a copayment or coinsurance?
  6. Does the plan include out-of-network benefits?
  7. How many treatment days or visits are covered?
  8. Is continued treatment subject to clinical review?

Insurance verification provides an estimate based on information from the insurer. It is not a guarantee of payment. Coverage can change if eligibility ends or the insurer determines that a service is not medically necessary.

Using Mass General Brigham Health Plan at Lake Avenue Recovery

Lake Avenue Recovery offers high-intensity outpatient treatment, daytime IOP, evening IOP, and standard outpatient care. Clients receive an individualized treatment plan rather than a fixed set of services.

Treatment may include individual counseling, group therapy, relapse-prevention education, and holistic support. Lake Avenue Recovery also treats dual diagnosis disorders. These occur when addiction and a mental health condition affect the same person.

Our admissions team can check whether Lake Avenue Recovery participates with your specific Mass General Brigham Health Plan product. We can also explain expected costs and authorization requirements. If we are not the right clinical or insurance fit, we can help you consider other options.
