Drug management programs

Safe, effective care comes first

Many of our members experience pain because of serious health conditions or disabilities. Their doctors may prescribe opioids or other medications to help reduce pain. Pain medications may be medically necessary for the effective treatment of our members, and we work to ensure that these members can get the prescription drugs that they need. We also provide extra support to ensure that each member’s treatment plan is safe. For members who are identified as potentially at risk for opioid abuse, the CCA Health pharmacy team works with member care partners to carefully monitor treatment plans and patient progress.

Drug Treatment Options

If a member becomes addicted to a drug, like an opioid, CCA Health offers additional programs. Most major substance abuse providers are also in the CCA Health provider network. This includes those that provide medication-assisted treatment (MAT). We partner with many support programs, facilities, and specialists to provide a wide range of treatment options to members experiencing addiction. CCA Health covers numerous programs and services, including the ones listed below:

• Partial hospital programs and intensive outpatient programs
• Counseling and therapy sessions, including group and individual therapy
• Medication-assisted treatment, including methadone, buprenorphine, and injectable naltrexone
• Inpatient detoxification and acute residential treatment
• Crisis stabilization
• Recovery coaching
• Recovery Support Navigators
• Residential rehabilitation services
• Transitional support services for substance use disorders
