Yuba City’s Addiction Resource Center Now Accepts All Major Insurance Providers

Addiction Resource Center, a rehabilitation center based in Yuba City, has expanded its list of accredited insurance companies in an effort to increase accessibility to vital treatment services in its Yuba City rehabilitation facility. The list now includes all major providers, including Blue Cross Blue Shield, TRICARE, and Aetna, among many others.

According to Addiction Resource Center's medical director, Dr. Deirdre Habermehl, PhD, its decision to accept more health insurance providers makes rehabilitation more accessible to a larger pool of individuals who may not have been able to afford treatment otherwise. "More insurance options mean that they are less likely to face substantial out-of-pocket expenses, which makes treatment more affordable and reduces financial stress for many."

She added that with improved access, patients are also more likely to complete their treatment plans with financial barriers eliminated. Moreover, extended care, such as follow-up therapy sessions, becomes available, resulting in better long-term recovery outcomes.

A Persistent Crisis

Addiction Resource Center further emphasizes that expanding its accredited providers comes at a crucial time when alcohol abuse remains a persistent issue. The National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, in its latest survey, reported that 28.9 million people over 12, or 10.2% of the age group, suffer from alcohol abuse.

According to a study by Keck Medicine of USC, the COVID pandemic has been responsible for exacerbating "heavy" alcohol consumption among Americans, a level that still "persists" even long after the crisis.

"With the current economic situation--with the job losses, inflation, and even the negative rhetorics bombarding our social media feeds relentlessly--we don't see a scenario where problematic alcohol use will subside in the near future," Dr. Habermehl lamented.

Evidence-Based Approach

For individuals seeking professional intervention, Addiction Resource Center offers a non-judgmental and empathetic environment where those suffering from alcohol abuse can focus on their recovery.

Living in Balance, its flagship program, was designed as an evidence-based approach that considers and addresses the multiple aspects of alcohol abuse that conventional medication tends to ignore, such as the emotional and social aspects. As a holistic approach, Living in Balance may include interventions that enhance motivation and self-esteem along with more traditional methods like CBT.

With a focus on outpatient treatment, the center's programs ensure that patients can come home and maintain employment while getting the care they need from Addiction Resource Center's team of specialists.
