Anthem Healthcare for Addiction Treatment
Addiction is a chronic health concern that requires ongoing treatment and maintenance to help ensure relapse does not occur. Recognizing this, most health insurers in the US provide some degree of cost coverage for substance abuse treatment.
One in every 8 Americans receives their health coverage from Anthem’s affiliated health plans. As one of the largest health insurers in the US, Anthem recognizes its responsibility to provide comprehensive health coverage to keep people as healthy as possible.
