What Blue Cross Blue Shield Covers for Rehab in Texas

Blue Cross Blue Shield plans cover medically necessary detox, inpatient and residential rehab, partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient and outpatient care at parity with medical benefits. Precertification for detox and inpatient care goes through your home Blue plan or its behavioral health administrator; our admissions team handles it, including BlueCard authorizations for out-of-state members. In-network cost sharing means your plan’s deductible, copay or coinsurance and out-of-pocket maximum apply.

Blue Cross Blue Shield Plans in Texas

Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Texas, part of Health Care Service Corporation, is the state’s largest insurer, with employer PPO and HMO plans, Blue Advantage and MyBlue Health marketplace plans, Medicare Advantage, and STAR, STAR Kids and CHIP Medicaid plans in its service areas. Out-of-state Blue members are covered through BlueCard, and Federal Employee Program (FEP) members are in-network at all three Texas centers.

What Blue Cross Blue Shield Members Should Know About Texas

BCBSTX handles behavioral health authorizations for most commercial plans directly, so precertification for detox or residential care is requested from the plan and usually returned the same business day. Federal Employee Program members are in-network at all three centers. Members of other Blue plans, including retirees who spend winters in Texas, are covered through BlueCard at their home plan’s in-network rate. BCBSTX marketplace products such as Blue Advantage HMO and MyBlue Health use narrower networks than PPO plans, so confirm your specific product with our admissions team before admission.

To confirm your Blue Cross Blue Shield benefits, verify your insurance online or call our admissions line; full instructions, private-pay options and payment plans are on our Texas insurance guide.
