Alumni Client Family Testimonial

I feel like Cornerstone gave him all the right tools. He knew how to do it. It was something we could have never done. I just could totally see kind of a personality change in him of wanting, and knowing, that he could achieve and do higher things and greater things. That has to be the people (at Cornerstone).”

How many times will Meritain cover rehab?

Recovery from addiction is a continuous journey, and experiencing a relapse after rehab is a possibility that should not be seen as a setback.

Treating substance use disorders comes with the challenge of potential relapse, but it’s not a sign of failure.

The National Institute on Drug Abuse reports that the relapse rate during recovery ranges from 40% to 60%.5

However, such cases can be utilized to develop prevention strategies, increasing the chances of maintaining sobriety in the long run.

Relapses can offer valuable insights and help rehabilitation professionals refine and modify the individual’s treatment plan.6

Meritain Health understands that treating substance use disorders can be a complicated process, and it is recognized that multiple attempts at rehabilitation may be necessary.

In most cases, insurance providers, including Meritain Health, will cover the cost of rehab treatments if it is deemed medically necessary, regardless of how many times an individual has previously been admitted to rehab.
