Medi-Cal vs. Private Insurance: What Kind of Drug Rehab Treatment Can You Access?

Understand the differences between Medi-Cal and private insurance and how NewportOne Health helps match you with covered drug rehab treatment options.

When it comes to behavioral health and addiction recovery, the type of insurance you carry can significantly impact the drug rehab options available to you. At NewportOne Health, we help you understand the difference—and connect you to treatment programs that accept your coverage.

đź’ˇ What Is Medi-Cal?

Medi-Cal is California’s Medicaid program, and it covers a wide range of addiction and drug rehab services, including:

  • Medical detox and outpatient treatment
  • Residential drug rehab through approved providers
  • Mental health and substance use counseling

However, not every facility accepts Medi-Cal, and availability may be limited depending on demand and location.

đź’° What About Private Insurance?

Private insurance plans, especially PPOs, often open the door to a broader range of drug rehab options, including:

  • Luxury or high-end residential drug rehab centers
  • Access to specialized trauma treatment and dual diagnosis care
  • Holistic recovery services like yoga, nutritional planning, and one-on-one therapy

Private insurance may also offer shorter wait times and more personalized amenities, depending on the policy.

📞 How NewportOne Health Helps

Whether you have Medi-Cal or private insurance, NewportOne Health will guide you to the drug rehab centers that accept your specific coverage—saving you time, energy, and unnecessary confusion.

You’ll never be referred to a program that isn’t covered under your plan.
