Our experts have over 30 years of experience helping families recover from substance use with the assistance of our diverse community.

Find lasting recovery at our accredited Long Beach facility.
UnitedHealthcare plans may partially or fully cover out-of-pocket and upfront costs related to substance abuse treatment. In-network facilities ensure that your insurance covers a larger percentage of care costs after you meet any deductibles. UnitedHealthcare’s medical policies help cover a variety of substance abuse programs and services.
UnitedHealthcare and other common insurance providers generally cover individual counseling and psychiatric care for people with substance use and mental health disorders.
New Found Life addresses issues related to addiction and trauma through family counseling and education, strengthening relationships and creating healthier family dynamics.
In addition to evidence-based therapies, New Found Life also offers holistic addiction treatment, including fitness routines, yoga, and meditation, which are covered by most insurance policies.
We offer case management services to assist clients and their loved ones in navigating every stage of treatment, from detox facilitation to support with transitional living.
We continue to provide support and aftercare resources to alumni and their families after treatment, including regular phone check-ins and access to community events.
UnitedHealthcare may fully or partially cover our residential, outpatient, and aftercare programs or services focused on relapse prevention.
Our residential treatment program utilizes 12-Step immersion, skill development, family engagement, peer support, and evidence-based therapies to help people heal from addiction and mental health disorders.
Some people benefit from participating in partial hospitalization programs with their more strict treatment schedules before transitioning into other outpatient programs, aftercare, or transitional living.
Most insurance plans partially or fully cover dual diagnosis treatment for people with co-occurring conditions. We offer a continuum of care, including residential and outpatient programs for individuals with dual diagnoses.
The continuum of care offered at New Found Life includes gradual step-down treatment options, including intensive outpatient and other flexible nonresidential programs that support lasting recovery.
Some people benefit from medication-assisted treatment (MAT) during detox and residential or outpatient rehab. New Found Life offers short-term MAT support that includes some medications for managing withdrawal symptoms. We do not offer long-term Suboxone as part of our MAT services.
Case managers and other members of our care team at New Found Life facilitate the coordination of detoxification before treatment. We do not provide on-site medical detox services.
New Found Life can help you determine if your health insurance plan covers our addiction and mental health services. The amount of money you or a loved one may have to pay toward treatment at our drug addiction treatment facilities depends on deductibles, copays, and co-insurance.

Healthcare providers and treatment facilities that are considered in-network have contracted with UnitedHealthcare and offer services at lower prices. People usually have access to more comprehensive care and additional treatment options when they work with in-network providers. Contact your insurance provider to find out more about local programs covered under in-network care.
Out-of-network providers do not contract with your insurance company and may require you to pay more out-of-pocket expenses or limit access to certain recovery service providers. New Found Life offers payment plans and other options for individuals with out-of-network coverage.
Some insurance plans have deductibles, copays, and other out-of-pocket expenses. A deductible is the amount you need to pay before your insurance begins to cover costs. After paying your yearly deductible, you would have a co-insurance percentage to pay until you meet the out-of-pocket maximum for your insurance plan. Insurance covers 100% of costs for services under your plan after you reach the out-of-pocket maximum.

Copays are fixed fees you pay per visit (e.g., individual therapy sessions), and insurance covers the remainder of the fee. Our programs offer payment plans and other financial resources for clients with higher copays or deductibles.

Some coverage plans required referrals to in-network and out-of-network treatment services. Preferred provider organizations (PPOs) offer greater flexibility and out-of-network access. PPOs generally have higher deductibles and premiums because they allow out-of-network services.
If you are not sure what type of plan you have or whether it covers our treatment programs, we can help you find information on your coverage limits and referral requirements.
UnitedHealthcare and other insurance companies determine coverage based on medical necessity and do not provide coverage for convenience alone. Providers use clinical guidelines, generally accepted medical standards of care, peer-reviewed literature, and medical histories to decide if a service, program, or procedure meets the criteria for medical necessity.

Your primary care doctor can provide a letter to your insurance company stating the medical necessity of residential or outpatient rehab programs for addiction and dual diagnosis. Prior authorization is often needed for rehabilitation programs. Contact us today to learn more about how to ensure you receive the approval you need to treat SUD.
You can use UnitedHealthcare insurance to cover services and programs provided by New Found Life. Our intake specialists and clinical team provide referrals, detox facilitation, case management, and other resources to ensure you or your loved one gets the care you need to heal from addiction. Before reaching out, confirm your insurance details with your provider.
To verify your insurance, you can contact our office. Be sure to have your insurance card and other relevant information available before reaching out. We can help you determine insurance coverage and eligibility.
New Found Life offers personalized treatment that takes into consideration your insurance plan benefits and coverage details. Our clinicians make it easy to navigate treatment and ongoing recovery while balancing financial responsibilities and eligibility requirements. We can assist you in understanding the variability of specific plan coverage and support provided by your insurance.
Verifying insurance coverage and taking the first steps toward recovery help reduce fear of the unknown by providing transparency around treatment expectations and access. You can begin your treatment with confidence by talking with one of our experts about the available intervention and rehabilitation options. We help families identify the signs of early addiction and guide them through the process of treating the condition before it can cause long-term damage.
Our programs also offer personalized care to individuals who may not have responded well to previous treatment attempts. We work with every client where they are today and help families support their loved ones through treatment and recovery.

Some families may feel stuck or overwhelmed if their loved one shows signs of alcohol or drug abuse. Families play an essential role in ensuring loved ones seek treatment through their healthcare providers, local helpline, or by contacting New Found Life and other addiction centers. Insurance companies cover some of the costs of treatment, ensuring people struggling with alcohol, opioid, or other substance addictions have access to rehabilitation services.
Contact us today if you notice signs of SUD, including social withdrawal and strained relationships, increased substance use, and inability to quit abusing alcohol or drugs despite repeated attempts, mental health issues caused by chronic substance use, and symptoms of withdrawal during periods of abstinence. Some people avoid treatment out of fear or uncertainty. We can help by providing high-quality addiction and mental health care in a welcoming environment that supports lasting sobriety. You can recover and build a happier, healthier future with the help of our dedicated clinical team.

The length of treatment coverage depends on your health insurance plan and the type of rehab programs your care team recommends. Most plans cover the first several weeks of addiction treatment, with additional time added depending on clinical evaluations and treatment recommendations.
